Minneapolis, MN, part of the vibrant Twin Cities metro, is known for its parks, lakes, strong job market, and diverse neighborhoods. Whether you're relocating for work at a Fortune 500 company, attending the University of Minnesota, or simply drawn to its progressive energy, renting a private room is a great way to live affordably while enjoying city life.
Whether you want to find someone to split the rent with or simply need a comfortable room in a shared apartment, Diggz can help match you with listings and roommates that fit your lifestyle.
The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Minneapolis is around $1,250 per month. Shared apartments or private rooms in a larger house typically rent for much less—often between $700 and $950/month—depending on the neighborhood and amenities.
Popular areas for room rentals include Uptown, Northeast Minneapolis, and Whittier. If you're looking for more affordable options, explore neighborhoods like Powderhorn, Phillips, or Como—especially for students or budget-minded professionals.
If you're open to living just outside of Minneapolis, nearby cities like St. Paul, Richfield, or Brooklyn Center offer convenient commutes and more rental inventory.
