Just when it looked like Brooklyn rents couldn’t possibly go any higher, they jumped again.
The median rent for a Brooklyn apartment rose by a whopping 10.8% year-over-year in August, to $3,112 a month, according to a new report by residential brokerage Douglas Elliman.
The gain marks the first time since records began that median rents topped $3,000 a month.
“It’s the third record high in three months,” said real estate appraiser Jonathan Miller, who prepared the report, “and we’re going to continue over the coming year to see prices hit record levels.”
Rents rose dramatically for every unit type across the borough.
The median price for a studio apartment rose by 14.6% from last year, to $2,500, while prices for one- and two-bedroom homes went up by 7.7% and 14.7%, respectively.
The median price for a one-bedroom pad was $2,865 in August, while the price for a two-bedroom topped $3,500.

I thought LA’s rents were bad! How does anybody afford that?
The illegals are not paying $3,000/mo. rent. Brooklyn has become the most fashionable address in the country for hipsters.
I know people who live in Boston. How they can afford/justify the rent I have no idea.
