Average rent by town (2026)

Live average rent figures for 30 UK towns and cities, built from current listings on Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket and refreshed daily. Each page shows the monthly and weekly average, the typical range, rents by bedroom count and whether the local market currently favours landlords or tenants.

Averages are the backdrop; your own rent turns on your postcode. For a figure specific to your street, use the rent calculator. For the quarterly England-wide picture, see the England Rent Increase Index.
