Is a 1-bedroom or studio apartment a better value in Colorado Springs?

In Colorado Springs, 1-bedrooms average $1,478/mo versus $832/mo for a studio. For solo renters on a tight budget, compare both filters on Rentler before applying. If you work from home or spend significant time in your apartment, the extra separation of a larger unit may be worth the difference.

Are 1-bedroom apartments in Colorado Springs pet-friendly?

Pet policies on 1-bedroom apartments vary by landlord and building — there's no blanket rule. Use Rentler's pet-friendly filter to narrow your search, then confirm breed, weight, and deposit requirements directly with the landlord before applying.

Can I find furnished 1-bedrooms in Colorado Springs, CO?

Furnished 1-bedrooms are available in Colorado Springs but represent a smaller share of total inventory compared to unfurnished units. Use Rentler's furnished filter to surface move-in-ready options. Furnished units are most common in newer construction buildings and in complexes that cater to corporate or short-term renters.

How much should I earn to rent a 1-bedroom in Colorado Springs?

Most landlords in Colorado Springs require gross monthly income of 2.5–3x the monthly rent. For a 1-bedroom at Colorado Springs's current average of $1,478/mo, that means demonstrating roughly 2.5–3x that amount in gross income. If you're below that threshold, a co-signer, larger security deposit, or prepaid rent may be accepted by some landlords — always worth asking.

What to Know Before Renting a 1-Bedroom Apartment in Colorado Springs, CO

A 1-bedroom apartment in Colorado Springs hits the sweet spot for most solo renters and couples — enough space to have a real living room and a separated sleep area, without the cost of a 2-bedroom you don't fully use. For remote workers, a 1-bedroom is often the minimum viable setup: you can close a door between your workspace and your living space, which matters more than most people expect before they try working from a studio. When evaluating 1-bedrooms in Colorado Springs, pay attention to bedroom size (some 1-bedrooms are technically 1-bedrooms with a bedroom that fits a queen bed and nothing else), closet space, and whether the kitchen opens to the living room or is walled off. In-unit laundry, a parking spot, and a dedicated storage unit are the three amenities most renters wish they'd prioritized when they didn't have them. 1-bedrooms in Colorado Springs also tend to have the most competitive rental market of any unit type — more supply than studios, but more demand than 2-bedrooms, which means good 1-bedrooms in desirable Colorado Springs neighborhoods at fair prices move quickly.

Colorado Springs Neighborhoods for 1-Bedroom Renters

Downtown Colorado Springs

Downtown Colorado Springs has a strong inventory of apartments, lofts, and condos, including studios, 1-bedrooms, and a few 2-bedrooms. With older, renovated, and newer buildings, rents generally range from mid-level to above Colorado Springs’ average price point of $1,736/mo. However, some luxury options are also available. Locals can walk to restaurants, shops, and entertainment along Tejon Street, while Mountain Metro Transit routes connect through the Downtown Terminal. Additionally, I-25 provides direct access to Denver and Pueblo. The rentals in Downtown Colorado Springs are best for young professionals, remote workers, and solo renters seeking smaller, pet-friendly apartments with walkable urban access.

Old Colorado City

With apartments, duplexes, and historic homes, Old Colorado City rentals are mostly 1-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms, alongside some larger 3-bedroom homes. The area’s predominantly older housing stock tends to fall around Colorado Springs’ average rent price, with fewer renovated properties available for luxury price points. Many rentals are pet-friendly, especially those around West Colorado Avenue’s walkable corridor. Mountain Metro Route 3 takes renters straight to downtown. All in all, Old Colorado City is a strong fit for couples, small families, and renters who want older homes full of character within walking distance of shopping and dining.

Briargate

Briargate is known for newer single-family homes, townhomes, and apartment communities. Most rentals are 2-bedrooms or 3-bedrooms. Pricewise, rents generally sit above Colorado Springs’ average price, with luxury pockets in new developments, such as Cordera and Wolf Ranch. Because the area has many parks, walking trails, and large suburban-style homes, many landlords offer pet-friendly rentals. Briargate Parkway is the major east-west route, connecting to I-25 for commuting across Colorado Springs. With its new multi-bedroom rentals and outdoor access, Briargate is ideal for families with pets and professionals.

Powers Corridor

With many new builds, the Powers Corridor has a broad mix of apartments, townhomes, and single-family rentals, including 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom options. Prices are typically in line with rents in Colorado Springs, with fewer luxury properties than surrounding neighborhoods, such as Briargate and Downtown. Larger apartment communities and homes with yards make the area pet-friendly, especially those with outdoor amenities. Powers Boulevard connects locals to major retail centers, Peterson Space Force Base, and the Colorado Springs Airport. Powers Corridor is a great option for families, military households, and professionals seeking larger floorplans, in-house parking, and easy commuting.

Broadmoor/Southwest Colorado Springs

Broadmoor and Southwest Colorado Springs are known for luxury rentals, including upscale apartments, condos, and single-family homes with 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom layouts. Older and mid-era rentals make up most of the inventory, but many properties have been renovated. As a result, rents are typically higher than the city’s average. Mountain Metro Route 4 runs between Broadmoor and Downtown Colorado Springs. Drivers primarily use South Nevada Avenue and I-25 for daily trips. With larger pet-friendly rentals, upscale finishes, and access to trails, Broadmoor and Southwest Colorado Springs are best for high-income families, professionals, and executives in this corner of Colorado.
