There are plenty of 1/2-bed apartments for under $1000 in Lakewood. Granted they aren’t the most updated and some of the property managers aren’t the best, but they exist. I rent a 2-bed apartment for $775 in Lakewood.

Not true at all. None of my friends can find spots like that. Everything is 1300+ and GRAY.

It is true, you just have to know where to find them. You won’t find much on websites like apartments.com or even Zillow for places in Lakewood. You have to look on property management websites and reach out directly about upcoming vacancies. Lakewood is a hotspot so landing a rental for a reasonable price is a bit competitive. It could also be that some of your friends are looking for a certain standard that is not in line with their budget.

edit: Also you’re right, places love the grey lol. All my walls are grey. I’m just happy they aren’t white tho
