Quite a difference in rent costs from $1,000 a month to $330.00 a month. From having been to Medellin听 a couple times I know a little but not a enough to know what average rent is. Where can I get more info on average rent? I would be looking for a high rise one bedroom or even studio.

Thanks!

vivavisos.com听 this is an excellent site to look at local apartment prices. I hope this helps.

It depends how long you will be renting for and how you chooses to live. I will say I think most of the furnished apartments offered up by other expats are way over priced.
