Frequently asked questions

How many cheaper, more affordable apartments are available in New Haven, CT?

There are 2,487 cheaper apartment units available for rent.

What does "Cheap" mean for Apartment rentals in New Haven, CT?

Cheap is a relative term to communicate more "affordable" rental and living expenses. Although a property might be found within the "Cheap Apartments" search, does not mean it is a low-quality rental. These more affordable apartments are also relative to the other apartment inventory within New Haven. Some areas will be cheaper than others and based on demand, rent will fluctuate.

How to search for Cheap Apartments in New Haven, CT?

When searching on HotPads for more affordable apartments, use the "Sort:" feature to sort apartments by Lowest Price for New Haven. Additionally, set a max price for your search and select "Save search" to be notified in real-time when "cheaper" apartments come on the market.

What are some additional tips for securing a "cheaper" apartment?

Although a larger multi-tenant building is less likely to negotiate rental terms there are a few things that don't hurt to try, including:

Offer to sign a longer lease for lowered monthly rent
Negotiate landscaping or property maintenance for lowered monthly rent
Ask about becoming an onsite property manager
Educate yourself regarding the apartment rental market and market rates in New Haven. Knowing this will help you accurately negotiate fair rent.

About New Haven

Area Information

New Haven, the second-largest city in Connecticut, is on Long Island Sound, only 75 miles northeast of New York, New York. Two major highways, I-95 and I-91, converge here. Metro-North commuter trains take you to to Manhattan in two hours, and Amtrak trains take you to Boston, Massachusetts, in three hours.

New Haven is home to Yale University and its 12,000 students. The 300-acre campus is known for its lush quads and beautiful Colonial and Victorian Gothic buildings. The school's vast resources are a boon to the community. The Yale School of Music hosts regular classical and jazz concerts at reasonable prices, and the Yale Bulldog athletics teams are popular with sports fans. If that's not enough, consider attending events at one or more of the city's seven other colleges.

Many apartments for rent in New Haven cater to grad students. Yale's campus, with its well-preserved 19th- and early-20th-century buildings, sprawls around downtown. The neighborhood has all the attendant shops and restaurants. Other popular neighborhoods just beyond campus are Prospect Hill and leafy East Rock, named for the 425-acre East Rock Park along Mill River. East Rock's Upper State Street has bars, restaurants and a seasonal farmers market. If you're moving to New Haven for the pizza, cross the train tracks to visit Wooster Square. The historically Italian enclave is home to warring pizza parlors: Pepe's, original home of the white clam pie; and Sally's, Frank Sinatra's favorite pizzeria.

For those times when you want to head out of the city, the Green Mountains are due north on I-91. Stratton Mountain, in Vermont, is less than a three-hour drive away, perfect for a weekend ski trip. The Berkshires are even closer. A ferry from Bridgeport will take you to Port Jefferson, New York, while ferries from New London go to Block Island in Rhode Island and to Orient Point, New York. You can drive to Cape Cod, Massachusetts in three hours, and to Newport, Rhode Island, in two hours.

Renting in New Haven, CT

New Haven has a tight rental market thanks to the large student population. If you want to be in a Yale-friendly precinct, act fast.
