Me and a few buddies rented a 2 bedroom apartment about 15 years ago. And those prices were about in the middle of the pack. $1,500 a month for a 2 Bedroom. So these prices seem not too horrid with that as my baseline and considering it is 15 years later.

Some places were a little higher, some places were a lot higher. Some places were a little lower. The cheapest was 2-3 bedrooms near federal hill for $800 a month. It sounded nice until the police report showed a 110% break in rate. (I called the PD to ask how that was possible, they said it was mostly the same places getting broken into over and over again.) Also our car insurances would have EACH jumped 300% (Offsetting the savings almost exactly.)
