146 3 Bedroom Apartments for Rent

A little money goes a long way in Athens, where cheap apartments definitely rule the roost (Four to six hundred bucks, tops, is all it takes to land a quality 1 or 2 bedroom apartment or townhouse in Athens). Amenities, meanwhile, tend to be top notch, as many apartment complexes come equipped with in-unit washers/dryers, oversized swimming pools, fitness centers, clubhouses, balconies, patios, garage parking, and magic elves who clean your house while you sleep (okay, perhaps we exaggerate). Pet-friendly (including dogs allowed) rentals are available in abundance as well (ditto for furnished apartments in Athens), and waiting lists are rare, so feel free to shop the market leisurely before deciding which humble abode is the best fit for you. Just arm yourself with a couple forms of I.D. (sorry, League of Justice cards don’t qualify), proof of income, and a list of previous residences when you’re ready to submit a leasing app, and you’ll be kicking back in your Athens dream pad before you know it!

There’s no such thing as a danger area in Athens, fortunately, as crime rates are pretty low throughout the city. Still, if you’re not familiar with the area, you should probably visit Athens in advance to make sure you’re comfy with its laid back, small town Southern vibes. Also, since you’ll be living in the heart of “Tornado Alley,” you may want to consider a basic renter’s insurance (which usually costs less than $20 a month) that covers the cost of your belongings in case they blow into Georgia or the Land of Oz one day.

Home to a quaint downtown shopping district, the walker-friendly George S. Houston Historic District, and a wide range of open spaces, parks, museums, historic sites, and eateries, Athens is a city with something to offer to renters of all shapes and sizes. So what are you waiting for, bold apartment scavengers? Start sifting through the listings for a primo crash pad in Athens, and happy hunting! See more
