Hanoi Rent Report — June 2026
This is RentScout's monthly snapshot of the Hanoi rental market — asking prices across 3,933 live listings, including the local-language ones an English-only search never surfaces.
June 2026 in three numbers: the median 1-bedroom asks $343 · a deal in Tay Ho means a 1-bedroom under $269 · 2,976 new listings came in.
How much does a 1-bedroom cost in Hanoi?
| Type | Median (USD/mo) | Listings |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | $191 | 374 |
| 1 bedroom | $343 | 500 |
| 2 bedrooms | $457 | 758 |
| 3 bedrooms | $588 | 315 |
Most 1-bedroom asking prices fall between $172 and $596 a month (the 10th–90th percentile of 500 listings). Anything below that band deserves a closer look — sometimes it's a deal, sometimes it's a reason.
One more split worth knowing: 1-bedrooms posted in the local language ask $303 at the median vs $457 for English-language posts — 34% less for the same city. That cheaper half of the market is exactly what an English-only search never reaches (we translate it into the feed).
Which areas are cheapest — and what counts as a deal?
| Area | Median 1BR | Deal threshold | $/m² (all sizes) | Listings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tay Ho | $420 | under $269 | $8 | 153 |
| Cau Giay | $305 | under $189 | $7 | 75 |
| Ba Dinh | $449 | under $283 | $10 | 58 |
| Thanh Xuan | $248 | under $115 | $7 | 49 |
| Dong Da | $287 | under $197 | $9 | 46 |
| Nam Tu Liem | $240 | under $174 | $7 | 17 |
The deal threshold is the bottom tenth of asking prices for that area — the same bar our "Deal" badge uses on the feed. 5% of current listings mention a quiet area — Tay Ho leads with 16% of its listings making that claim.
What can your budget get you?
| Monthly budget | Covers | Goes furthest in |
|---|---|---|
| $275/mo | 32% of 1-bedrooms | Nam Tu Liem (74%), Thanh Xuan (60%) |
| $350/mo | 52% of 1-bedrooms | Thanh Xuan (83%), Nam Tu Liem (83%) |
| $450/mo | 69% of 1-bedrooms | Nam Tu Liem (93%), Thanh Xuan (90%) |
Coverage is the share of current 1-bedroom listings asking at or below that budget.
What are renters actually asking for?

Where the demand concentrates: Cau Giay draws 31% of requests against 16% of supply; Thanh Xuan draws 20% of requests against 11% of supply.
