10 of the Most Expensive Rentals in Indianapolis Right Now

Share this article:

Indianapolis may not be the country’s cheapest place to rent, but it certainly provides a greater bang for the buck than other big Midwest cities, including Chicago, the Twin Cities, and Columbus. The average asking rent in Indianapolis is $788 whereas rent in Chicago sits somewhere around $1,573. In the Twin Cities, apartments rent for $1,134 on average, according to data from Yardi Matrix.

Does that mean that Indy renters don’t get to enjoy the art of fine living? Of course they do, and their exclusive apartments come with outstanding amenities including designer finishes, expansive city views, and lush landscaping. Plus hefty price tags, naturally.

Want to experience a luxurious lifestyle in the heart of downtown Indianapolis? Take a peek at The Residences at CityWay, an eco-friendly apartment community offering modern living spaces complemented by an upscale amenity package. Think bright interiors with exposed duct work and brick walls, spacious kitchens with stainless steel appliances, rooftop terraces, and spectacular skyline views. Pretty impressive, right? And the price for all of that? The Vermillion apartment, for example, rents for about $3,050/mo., and it’s not even the priciest rental home in the city.

Check out the list below for some one-of-a-kind beauties, each offering something unique for Indy’s most discerning renters – and a common feature – high rental prices.
