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

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Median monthly rents in Rhode Island exhibit a clear east-west gradient, with the highest rents—exceeding $2,000—concentrated in a cluster of zip codes in the western-central part of the state, likely corresponding to affluent suburban communities west of Providence, while much of the Providence metro core and older urban zip codes reflect moderate rents in the $1,000–$1,500 range. The southern coastal zip codes and Block Island display notably lower or suppressed rent values, with several areas in light gray suggesting insufficient data, while the northeastern corner near the Massachusetts border trends toward higher rents in the $1,500–$1,750 range. A single bright yellow zip code on the western border stands out as a clear outlier, approaching or exceeding $2,500 in median monthly rent.
