How do I calculate how much I want to spend for a furnished apartment without knowing local housing rates?
Remember that all utilities within your budget are included in the monthly rent, as well as furniture and house wares. In major metropolitan areas, the rates for a one-bedroom apartment range from $1,800 – $2,500. In other areas you can expect to pay a little less, but remember that this is the only bill you will have to pay during your stay.
