Rent in Nottingham
Renting in Nottingham, everything you need to know before renting a home in Nottingham!
Rentals in Nottingham
Nottingham offers a variety of housing options, including Victorian terraced, semi-detached, and detached houses, alongside bungalows, new builds, and converted flats. With the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University, rentals in Nottingham include many student accommodations, ranging from shared flats to studios. This city caters to students, young professionals, and families, boasting several universities, excellent schools, and a robust public transportation system.
Nottingham has a broad rental market that covers Victorian terraces, semi-detached houses, new-build apartments, and purpose-built student accommodation. The two universities, the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University, mean there is a large and consistent student tenant population, but the city also draws young professionals and families who benefit from lower costs compared to larger cities further north or south.
According to ONS data, the average private rent in Nottingham reached £1,011 per month in July 2026, up 2.3% year on year. One-bedroom flats average around £726 per month, while two-bedroom properties sit closer to £897. The more central and upscale areas push above those averages, while outer neighbourhoods and areas with higher student populations tend to come in below. Most landlords require a gross income of at least 2.5 times the monthly rent. The median annual salary in Nottingham is approximately £25,252, with a mean of £28,213.
Districts in Nottingham
St Ann's sits just north of the city centre and offers some of the more affordable rents in the city. It has a diverse community, reasonable transport links, and is popular with students and younger renters. Radford to the west of the centre is similarly affordable and well positioned for the University of Nottingham campus.
The Park is Nottingham's most distinctive upmarket neighbourhood, a private estate of Georgian and Victorian townhouses close to Nottingham Castle. It has a quiet, residential feel and the architecture is genuinely notable. It sits at the premium end of the rental market.
Hyson Green is a busy, multicultural area with a well-known street market and a wide range of independent food options. It has affordable rents and an energetic atmosphere. Lenton borders the University of Nottingham campus and is the most student-dense neighbourhood in the city, with good bus links and a strong supply of shared houses. Wollaton is a quieter, more suburban option known for Wollaton Hall and its deer park, with a mix of family homes and good schools.
