Here are the most expensive cities in rent in to start the 2016 year. You can also see rent growth(or decline) for month over month, quarter over quarter, and year over year to see how your city is trending.
Their listings for apartments in Chicago must skew towards the luxury side, because only a handful of neighborhoods in the entire city have average one bedroom rents that are roughly $2000. Even in a neighborhood like Lincoln Park, the average rent is more like $1500-1600.

It's whatever is listed on their website. I'd like to think that older apartment buildings are also listed on this website.
Zumper's data and methodology has been called into question. I think making an apple to apple comparison between different cities using their data is questionable at best.
Virginia Beach rent is higher than that. Also those rentals in VB are not even close in quality to other cities like Houston and Dallas with all the upgrades.

I definitely question that as well. On another topic, I'm happy not to see Phoenix on this list.
San Diego is a lot cheaper than LA overall. Just doesn't have the industry (entertainment in the case of LA) and demand to drive rents and real estate prices the way LA does.
San Diego is full of military personnel, frat boys, and people working service jobs - renting. Since they obviously can afford it, it means it's fairly inexpensive.

I was going to say, $2000 for a one-bedroom in Chicago as the AVERAGE is just silly. Even in some of the most desirable neighborhoods you can find very nice places for much cheaper than that.
