In this issue of MarketRent™ powered by Clarendon, we highlight Hartford’s evolving rental market, where walkability is driving rental price increases. Apartments in high-walk-score neighborhoods, offering easy access to amenities and transportation, now command higher rents, especially for two-bedroom units. Hartford’s revitalization, with significant development planned for areas like Clay Arsenal and Northeast, is fueling this trend. These neighborhoods are set to become vibrant, pedestrian-friendly hubs that attract today’s renters.
 
We also share a variety of data tools and visualizations to help you understand the connection between walkability rental prices and development in Hartford.
