DUNDEE offers Scottish tenants one

of the most affordable rent costs for
an apartment, new data has revealed,
while Edinburgh takes the top spot in
Scotland for being the most expensive
area.

New research by Karpiak Caravan

analysed the most populated areas in
the UK and used data from Numbeo to
find where tenants can rent an
apartment at the lowest cost. The
analysis was based on prices for one
bed apartments and three bed
apartments both in the city centre and
outside of the city.

The study revealed that Dundee is the

most affordable area in Scotland
for tenants, with an average cost of
£636.43 per month. Dundee offers
tenants the lowest apartment prices in
any Scottish area when it comes to
a one-bedroom apartment outside of
the city centre at £422.50 and
a three-bed apartment in the city
centre costing £889.29 as a monthly
average.

In contrast, Edinburgh was

unsurprisingly revealed to be the
priciest area for tenants to rent an
apartment in Scotland, with an
average total monthly rent of
£1,053.16. Edinburgh had the highest
cost for every form of Scottish
apartment analysed in the study with a
one-bedroom in the city centre having
an average monthly rent of £832.59.

Commenting on the study, a

spokesperson from Karpiak Caravan
said: “With the current cost-of-living
crisis at an all-time high, it is now
more important than ever for UK
residents to manage their money
effectively. This study offers a useful
breakdown of the most cost-effective
locations and types of renting,
providing the best options for those
looking to rent.”
