How many rentals under $800 are available in Los Angeles right now?

Rentler currently shows 76 rentals in Los Angeles priced under $800. Inventory at this price point is updated daily — availability changes quickly, especially at the lower price tiers where well-priced units receive applications within 24–48 hours of posting.

What types of units can I find under $800 in Los Angeles?

At the under $800 price point in Los Angeles, use the bedroom and property-type filters to narrow to studios, 1-bedrooms, 2-bedrooms, houses, or townhomes. Availability shifts daily — set a listing alert if you want to catch new units as they post.

What's the difference between cheap, affordable, and low-income apartments?

These terms refer to different things. Cheap or affordable apartments are market-rate units at the lower end of a city's price range — anyone can apply regardless of income. Low-income or income-restricted apartments are subsidized properties (through programs like Section 8, HUD, or LIHTC) that require income qualification, typically at or below 50–80% of the area median income. Both types may appear on Rentler — contact landlords directly on lower-priced listings to ask about income requirements and subsidy acceptance.

Are there pet-friendly rentals under $800 in Los Angeles?

Pet-friendly rentals exist across all price tiers. Use Rentler's pet-friendly filter to narrow to properties that accept animals. At lower price points, pet deposits and monthly pet rent still apply — factor that into your total monthly cost when budgeting. Breed and weight restrictions are common even on pet-accepting listings.

Can I negotiate rent in Los Angeles?

Yes — especially on market-rate listings with individual landlords, which make up a significant share of Rentler's inventory. Negotiating leverage is highest in winter (November through January), when fewer people are searching and landlords are more motivated to fill vacancies. Offering a longer lease term, a larger security deposit, or the ability to move in quickly are the most effective negotiating levers.

What to Know Before Renting Under $800 in Los Angeles, CA

Affordable Rentals by Los Angeles Neighborhood

Koreatown

Featuring apartments, condos, and older multifamily buildings, rentals in Koreatown are primarily studios, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom units. Known for having a dense rental inventory and urban amenities, rents in this walkable neighborhood are usually the same as Los Angeles’ average rate of $2,424/mo. Compared to the West side of LA, there aren’t as many luxury listings. Many rentals are pet-friendly, offering dog walk areas and community outdoor spaces. Locals typically take the Metro B and D Lines to reach Wilshire Boulevard, Downtown LA, and Hollywood. Koreatown is best for students, young professionals, and couples who want walkability, proximity to cafes and entertainment, and convenient transit.

Downtown LA/South Park/Arts District

Downtown Los Angeles, South Park, and the Arts District offer apartments, lofts, and condos. Studios and 1-bedrooms are most common, but there are 2-bedrooms available as well. The area mostly has new construction and renovated historic properties, and prices are typically above LA’s average rate of $2,424/mo. Many apartments are pet-friendly, especially those close to parks and urban amenities. Residents can walk to local jobs or take the Metro A and E Lines to other parts of the city. Overall, Downtown LA, South Park, and the Arts District are best for solo professionals, couples, and creatives who want to live within walking distance of urban attractions.

Hollywood/East Hollywood

With older apartments, duplexes, and smaller homes, Hollywood and East Hollywood have a steady supply of studios, 1-bedrooms, and 2-bedrooms. Prices range from mid-level to above average, with renovated buildings adding moderate luxury units to the local inventory. Many rentals are pet-friendly, especially larger apartment buildings on walkable streets. Residents have many transit options, including Metro’s B Line, which connects Hollywood Boulevard, Vermont Avenue, Downtown LA, and North Hollywood. With great nightlife, retail, and dining, Hollywood and East Hollywood are strong fits for solo renters, young couples, and entertainment-industry professionals.

North Hollywood/Valley Glen/Studio City

Renters in this Valley corridor have 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom apartments, townhomes, and houses to choose from. Most of the inventory is mid-era and new builds, and prices hover around LA’s average rate of $2,424/mo or slightly higher. Suburban-style houses with yards and larger developments tend to be the most pet-friendly, and they’re also great for households with kids. In terms of transit, locals can access the B Line and G Line via Hollywood Station or Universal City/Studio City Station. All in all, North Hollywood, Valley Glen, and Studio City are best for families and professionals who want larger floorplans and yard access.

West LA, Sawtelle, and Brentwood are luxury hubs in Los Angeles, with mostly high-end 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments, townhomes, and condos. Pricewise, rents are on the high side. The area’s renovated properties and new builds have some of the highest price points in the city. While the area leans urban, premium buildings offer pet-friendly amenities, such as covered dog walks and dog wash stations. Locals often take the Metro E Line via Expo/Sepulveda station to Downtown Los Angeles and Santa Monica. With upscale rentals and modern amenities, this area works well for high-income couples and professionals working in the Westside.
