Why is Denver's rent so high?

The cost of living in Denver is 127.6% higher than the national average. This is because Denver is a tech hub that’s growing in popularity, with many stunning homes and a prime location at the base of the Rocky Mountains. The city's median rent is approximately $1,739 , down slightly from last year and down 2.4% year over year.

What are the benefits of semi-furnished rentals?

Semi-furnished rentals are highly convenient and include essential items like major appliances and basic furniture. They don't come with smaller items like kitchen gadgets, decor, and wall art, which lets you add your personal touch to the apartment.

Denver Short-term Apartments (285)

Discover Furnished Apartments in Denver, CO

Denver is the vibrant capital city of Colorado. It offers about 300 days of sunshine annually and breathtaking views of the Rocky Mountains.

Denver — or the “Mile High City” — is a popular destination for Colorado newcomers because it blends urban living with outdoor adventure. Residents have easy access to the bustling downtown and various ski resorts. And the many neighborhoods are eclectic, with diverse dining and attractions.

If you’re moving to Colorado, you’ll find many semi-furnished and furnished apartments in Denver. Whether you're a professional relocating for work or a student seeking flexibility, these short and long-term units are move-in ready.

Understanding the differences between semi-furnished and fully furnished rentals in Denver, Colorado is essential for finding your new home. While semi-furnished apartments typically include the basics, like large appliances, fully furnished apartments have everything you need to settle in immediately, from living room sets to kitchen essentials and decor.

Here are the pros of looking for a semi or fully-furnished rental in Denver:

– Convenience and timeline: When it comes to Denver apartments, furnished units are a lifesaver if you're a busy professional or need to move quickly. When everything is already in the apartment, you can enjoy your new space immediately.
– Cost efficiency: Buying new furniture, appliances, and kitchen items is expensive. When you choose one of Denver's furnished apartments for rent, these costs are reduced or eliminated.
– Flexibility: Choosing a long or short-term furnished rental in Denver gives you the flexibility you need, whether traveling for work or visiting family.

If you're typing "furnished apartments for rent near me" in Google and coming up empty-handed, try Apartment List. Our app is your personal rental matchmaker — all you have to do is take our quiz, and we'll curate a list of rentals that align with your needs and budget.

Here's how we can help:

City Guide for Denver, CO

"The bright lights of Denver are shinin' like diamonds, like ten thousand jewels in the sky." (-Willie Nelson, "Denver").

Denver, the Mile-High City. It’s as if everything here is at its pinnacle. The sun is practically always shining, everyone’s happy and fit, and the economy—unlike so many other locales in the U.S.—is soaring. Denver also claims a handful of universities, three highly successful major league sports teams, a spattering of breweries (both macro and micro), and an increasingly efficient mass transit system. There are many, many reasons to move to this old trading post just east of the Rocky Mountains.
