What changes with an extra bedroom?
The two-bedroom reference is $800 higher per month than the one-bedroom figure in Chicago. Over twelve months, that difference is $9,600 before utilities or other charges.
If two people split the two-bedroom rent equally, the rent-only share would be $1,600 per person per month. This is an illustrative split of the stored figure, not an available room offer, and excludes bills.
The combined figure gives the bedroom categories equal weight. It is not a measured average of all homes in Chicago. The stored import lacks observation dates and sample sizes. Read the methodology and calculate a budget using a current listing.
