CityNerd | 10 Affordable Zip Codes Where You Can Live Without A Car @CityNerd | Uploaded June 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Where in the US can you get the most urbanism for your dollar?
Sometimes, talking about "affordable cities" just isn't specific enough. So this week, I'm getting pretty granular, and I'm counting down the most affordable US zip codes: neighborhoods, essentially, where you can pay low rent but still get good walkability, good urban fabric, and access to great destinations and amenities.
Thanks to Dwellsy for providing amazing data for the analysis I did in this video. I received no promotional consideration for mentioning them in the video or here in the description, but the site is worth checking out if you're apartment hunting! Check it out at dwellsy.com
