Austin apartments under $2,000

What to know first

These are the newer buildings with a studio or one-bedroom at or under $2,000 a month, either on base rent or once the move-in special is spread over a 12-month lease (1 of them only with the special). Cheapest real cost first.

Base rent is not the whole bill. Most new buildings add a required monthly package for internet, trash, pest control and amenities; among the buildings I track it runs about $37 to $190 a month, $103 in the middle. Each page lists it, and its calculator shows the all-in number.
