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

In Colorado Springs, studios average $830/mo versus $1,479/mo for a 1-bedroom. 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 studio apartments in Colorado Springs pet-friendly?

Pet policies on studio 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 studios in Colorado Springs, CO?

Furnished studios 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 studio in Colorado Springs?

Most landlords in Colorado Springs require gross monthly income of 2.5–3x the monthly rent. For a studio at Colorado Springs's current average of $830/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 Studio in Colorado Springs, CO

Studio apartments are a smart move for solo renters, minimalists, and anyone looking to maximize their budget in Colorado Springs by cutting square footage they don't actually use. In most markets, a studio runs 20–35% cheaper than a comparable 1-bedroom in the same building — a meaningful difference when you're budgeting monthly. The tradeoff is that everything happens in one room, so layout matters more than it does in a larger unit. Before signing, check the kitchen size (a narrow galley kitchen in a small studio gets old fast), closet and storage space, and whether there's a dedicated sleeping area or alcove to create separation. In-unit laundry and a second-floor unit are both worth prioritizing if available in Colorado Springs — shared laundry in a studio building means frequent trips, and ground-floor studios in urban areas can feel less secure. Studios in Colorado Springs work best for people who spend more time out than in and treat their apartment as a home base rather than a living space.

Colorado Springs Neighborhoods for Studio 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 $1,733/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.
