Housing Median Monthly Rent ($), by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Alabama

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Median monthly rents across Alabama are predominantly in the $500–$750 range, with the darkest purple tones covering much of the rural Black Belt region through the south-central portion of the state and parts of western Alabama. Notable clusters of higher rents ($1,000–$1,500+) appear in the Birmingham metro area in the north-central part of the state, the Huntsville–Madison corridor in the northeast, and along the Gulf Coast near Mobile and Baldwin County, with one zip code near Huntsville reaching approximately $2,500. The contrast between urban cores and surrounding rural areas is stark, as many zip codes adjacent to these higher-rent clusters drop sharply back to sub-$750 levels.
