Apartment List puts New Haven’s overall median rent at $1,799 a month in October 2026, down 2.0% on a year earlier. This is a short guide: I could not verify Yale’s 2026–27 housing charges, so I have not quoted any.
Details come from Apartment List, checked on 23 October 2026. Its page gave only an overall median for New Haven, which covers all unit types, not single rooms. Yale’s cost-of-attendance pages were not available to my tools, so check Yale directly for room and board.

I have no verified one-bedroom or two-bedroom figure for New Haven. I have not ranked neighbourhoods or listed private blocks, because I could not verify prices or area details against reliable sources. View any room in person or on a live video call, get a written lease and never pay before you have one.
