Here's where rents are rising the fastest in the New York area
And it's not New York City or Hoboken, according to Zumper.
New Yorkers may feel like the rent hikes never end, but it turns out that Newark, New Jersey residents are at the biggest disadvantage.
Just a quick train ride from Lower Manhattan, Newark had the fastest-growing rent in the New York Metropolitan area in February, according to a recent New York Metro Area Report by the online rental marketplace Zumper. Median rents for one-bedrooms in the New Jersey transportation hub grew 16.7% year-over-year.
