Based on Yardi Matrix data \u2014 and a bit of research \u2014 we\u2019ve highlighted the cities where apartments offer the most and least bang for your buck.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that Michigan is a great place to call home, as most cities here offer rather spacious apartments. On average, you can get 934 sq. ft. of living space for $1,100 in the state, more than the 651 sq. ft. you can rent for the same amount in the top 100 most populous cities. This means that Michigan apartments offer 43% more space for the same price.<\/p>\n<p>We put together the following infographic, which compares apartment sizes in the 63 Michigan cities included in our study. The size of the tiles represents the actual proportion of apartment space available for $1,100.<\/p>\n<p><script id=\"infogram_0_adb0da7d-774a-43cd-9378-0a4a87cf430f\" title=\"MI How much you can rent\" src=\"https:\/\/e.infogram.com\/js\/dist\/embed.js?fnw\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Throughout the state, the size of apartments you can rent on a $1,100 budget varies from 608 sq. ft. in Ann Arbor to more than twice as much space in Flint (1,403). Notably, although they fall on opposite ends of our ranking, these two Michigan cities are located only 50 miles from one another.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Top 5 Cities with Most Apartment Space for $1,100<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Flint, located 70 miles away from Detroit, is where you can find the most apartment space in the state, of 1,403 sq. ft., for that fixed amount. The city has an average rent of $679 \u2014 one of the lowest in Michigan \u2014 making this community of almost 97,000 people an affordable place to live in.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, $1,100 can also pay for generous amounts of square footage in other cities, like Taylor (1,269) \u2014 a suburb of Detroit \u2014, as well as Battle Creek (1,174), a city sixty miles South-East of Grand Rapids. Davison and Jackson also made the top 5, with 1,145 sq. ft. and 1,134 sq. ft., respectively.<\/p>\n<p>All of these cities boast local average rents between $679 and $846 \u2014 below the state\u2019s average \u2014 making them great choices for those looking for ample apartment space and lower rents.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Top 5 Cities with Least Apartment Space for $1,100<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Conversely, the least space you can get for the same money in Michigan is usually in cities where rents are higher, but overall the quality of apartments is better and they are generally considered to be more desirable locations. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/ann-arbor-mi\/\">Ann Arbor apartments<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 where rents go for an average of $1,595 a month \u2014 offer around 608 sq. ft. for $1,100.<\/p>\n<p>Next up are Dearborn and Detroit, both in the Detroit Metro and among the cities in the state where you get less space for that money, but you&#8217;ll live in some of the most sought-after locations. Specifically, in Dearborn you get only 777 sq. ft. and in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/detroit-mi\/\">Detroit apartments<\/a>, only 790 sq. ft. for the monthly rent of $1,100.<\/p>\n<p>The top 5 is closed by East Lansing and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/royal-oak-mi\/\">Royal Oak apartments<\/a> where the same amount will get you smaller apartments of 797 sq. ft. and 808 sq. ft., respectively. So, if you do decide to choose one of these cities, know that you\u2019ll need to shell out between $1,110 and $1,595 for the monthly rent. On the plus side, you\u2019ll be enjoying better locations, so that\u2019s definitely something worth considering.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What You Can Rent for $1,100 in the 3 Largest Michigan Metros<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s how much space you can get for $1,100 in Michigan\u2019s top three largest metros:<\/p>\n<p><script id=\"infogram_0_f6547dc5-ce23-4812-b6de-f0357ee6ccaa\" title=\"MI: Slides How much you can rent\" src=\"https:\/\/e.infogram.com\/js\/dist\/embed.js?9dF\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In the\u00a0<strong>Detroit metro,<\/strong>\u00a0Taylor apartments tend to offer more living space for that money. Here, you can get 1,269 sq. ft. for the monthly rent of $1,100. Roseville and Brownstown Township also prove to be great cities to live in because the space you could get here would also be substantially large of 1,095 sq. ft. and 1,093 sq. ft., respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the cities that offer the least space in the Detroit metro are Dearborn (777 sq. ft.), Detroit (790) and Royal Oak (808).<\/p>\n<p>In the\u00a0<strong>Grand Rapids metro<\/strong>, the top cities that offer the largest space for $1,100 are Comstock Park (1,038 sq. ft.), Kentwood (1,001 sq. ft.) and Grandville (968).<\/p>\n<p>On the flipside, Grand Rapids is where you\u2019ll find the least space in the metro, of 835 sq. ft. However, its healthy job market and beautiful scenery make this location more than ideal.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/haslett-mi\/\">Haslett apartments<\/a>\u00a0come with 1,133 sq. ft., the largest space you can get for the monthly rent of $1,100 in <strong>Lansing metro<\/strong>. Holt and Lansing are also generous cities in terms of space, as they both offer more than 1,030 square feet for the same amount.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the least space in this area is found in East Lansing, where you can get only 797 square feet, considerably less than the rest of the metro.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"calculator\"><b><i>See How Much Space You Can Get on Your Budget<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Want to find out how much space you can afford based on your budget in these 63 Michigan cities?
