National study of renter’s satisfaction with their cities and states
Apartment List has released Greenville’s results from the third annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. This survey, which drew on responses from over 45,000 renters nationwide, provides insight on what states and cities must do to meet the needs of the country’s 111 million renters.
"Greenville renters expressed general satisfaction with the city overall," according to Apartment List. "They gave most categories above average scores."
Key Findings in Greenville include the following:

Southern Side offers emerging opportunity with downtown accessibility where this evolving Greenville district provides more affordable options despite comparable proximity to Main Street attractions. Renters find diverse housing from traditional homes to emerging apartment communities at significantly lower rates than similar properties in established northside neighborhoods. Some blocks remain in various stages of revitalization with varied investment levels, but budget-conscious households appreciate both the housing value and walkable access to both Swamp Rabbit Trail recreation and developing commercial corridors despite the neighborhood's continued evolution beyond purely established districts requiring local knowledge for specific streets.
Artisan craftsmanship thrives at the 1926 West End Market's 50+ local vendors. Renters enjoy walkable bungalows but face sparse tree canopy (only 22% coverage) in this sun-baked grid. The Catchy Clutter vintage shop's rotating window displays draw Instagrammers nightly.
Historic grandeur at surprising price points distinguishes Overbrook, where impressive homes from Greenville's textile era create streetscapes with unmatched character. While predominantly owner-occupied, rental opportunities occasionally appear in divided larger homes with architectural details rarely found in newer construction. The neighborhood sits just minutes from both downtown Greenville and the Swamp Rabbit Trail, offering the perfect balance of urban accessibility and established residential charm.
