Trulia recently published a map indicating which neighborhoods had the highest percentage of 1-bedroom apartments renting for more than $2,000. According to Trulia, the median rent for a 1-bedroom in Boston is $2,300 but that may be viewed as a deal if you are looking for a place in the heart of Boston where rents continue to skyrocket.

In the national ranking Boston had the third highest percentage of 1-bedroom apartments for more than $2,000. San Francisco had the dubious honor of taking first place with 90.6% of 1 bedroom apartments over $2,000 and Manhattan was a close second with 89.3%. Boston was a distant third most expensive with 66.8%.
