30 Apartments for Rent

Sheboygan, Wisconsin

On the shoreline of Lake Michigan, smack-dab in the middle of Green Bay and Milwaukee, sits Sheboygan. Known as the “spirit on the lake,” Sheboygan is one of the greatest spots to find a sweet apartment rental on the cheap. Not only that, but this city proudly holds the title of “Bratwurst Capital of the World,” meaning Sheboygan is 14 square miles of pure Wisconsin fun. So, put on your lederhosen and get ready to find the perfect apartment rental in Sheboygan!

Apartments in Sheboygan come in many different shapes and sizes but they all have one thing in common: they are cheap – and not in the bad way, like a date or a bad pair of shoes. Aside from the few luxury lakeside condos that appeal to those with super-fancy taste (and tally in at $1200/month), well-priced rentals in Sheboygan are pretty easy to come by. A two bedroom apartment ranges between $580-$775 whereas one bedrooms, or “chalets” as they are sometimes called in Sheboygan, range between $450-$575. Upgrade, amenity and square footage options are endless in this fine city, too, so whether you have your sights set on a 1500 square foot condo with sweeping views, a fireplace, parking and a gym or a cozy, two bedroom, furnished apartment with all the bells and whistles (pool, clubhouse, fitness center, parking), Sheboygan’s got it.

Keep in mind that it can be a bit touristy here (especially in the summer) and that the city’s also home to three colleges (University of Wisconsin-Sheboygan being the biggest). This means that things can get a bit busy around town and apartment hunting can get hairy depending on the time of year. Start your apartment search near the end of the semester in December or May to solidify a rental spot.

For those worried about leasing terms and deposit costs in the Brat capital, you’ll be happy to know that short-term (3-6 months) leases are just as readily available as regular, ol’ 12-month leases. You will also delight in the fact that cheap apartment rentals come with very small deposits. As a matter of fact, $200 seems to be the average number to get your foot in the door. Of course, if you plan to move with a pet, your deposit will be a bit more ($150 and up/deposit and pet rent of $25 or so a month).

Another key thing to note about Sheboygan, aside from the amazing recreation options and killer Bratwurst Days festival, is that there are just as many apartment rentals that cater to the retired/seniors in the area as there are those that cater to families, students and working professionals. The city is diverse, active and full of adventure. Whether you enjoy the sandy beaches of Lake Michigan, a day of fishing at the marina, skiing in the winter or walking around the Sheboygan Falls Historic District, you'll be hard pressed to not fall in love with life around here—and with all the money you'll probably save on rent, you can truly live it up!
