Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

At a glance, Blacksburg is a small, liberal town situated between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Alleghany Mountains in Virginia’s Montgomery County. The largest town in Virginia, in terms of population, Blacksburg is home to about 42,000 proud residents. It also happens to be home to Virginia Tech. Though most cities tend to get swallowed up by the collegiate atmosphere, Blacksburg perfectly blends a college vibe with a settled community.

Blacksburg is loved for its progressive and cultural community, gorgeous scenery, large art scene, and its prestigious university. It also doesn’t hurt that the cost of living here is relatively low and residents can easily find an inexpensive apartment. They say that in the south, don’t they? Regardless, if you’re looking for an apartment to call home in the ‘burg, you’ve come to the right place. Sit back and let our listings guide you to your perfect Blacksburg rental.

Inexpensive apartments in Blacksburg are about as abundant as Hokie fans (that means they are very abundant). One-bedroom apartments range between $500 and $625, while two-bedrooms will usually run you between $570 and $700. Rental options in Blacksburg consist of studios/efficiencies, townhomes, and student apartments that are loaded with amenities such as pools, sun decks, dog parks, tanning beds, and fitness centers. Luxury rentals, on the more upscale end, feature everything from gourmet coffee bars to grottos! Yes, you read that correctly. Grottos. Awesome. Be sure to bring your checkbook or some dough with you when signing a lease, as deposits can be upwards of $200.

One thing to note about Blacksburg apartment rentals is that many are geared toward the Virginia Tech student body and some rental rates can be as low as $460 (or so) for a two-bedroom apartment somewhere off-campus. Four-bedroom apartments with common living areas are also huge in Blacksburg, but are likely to be filled with VT roommates. As a general rule, the “student areas” are around Patrick Henry Dr. and Roanoke Street/Downtown. If keggers and cram sessions aren’t your thing, be sure to always ask whether a community is student based. It’s also important for those not in college that apartments tend to fill up fast as the semester gets closer.

After you’ve found your ideal Blacksburg apartment rental, get out and explore your new neighborhood. Indulge in the unique downtown area, the great shopping and dining, First Fridays, Farmers Markets, local sports, sports bars and the beautiful surroundings in your new backyard. The ‘burg has plenty to offer, so take a gander at the listings. Your beautiful Blacksburg apartment is just waiting.
