Here’s who is beating Florida cities in apartment rent growth

Twin Texas cities Midland and Odessa led the list of 20 smaller cities Dallas-area apartment software firm RealPage analyzed, posting rent growth of 13.8% last month from a year ago for new apartment leases. The oil drilling cities rival the double-digit rent growth Florida cities were showing in 2021 and into last year. Madison, Wisconsin, home to the University of Wisconsin’s main campus, followed Midland/Odessa with an 8.8% gain.
