Listings were aggregated by city to calculate median asking rents.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest rent increase was in Euless, which went up 5.4 percent since last June to $1,370 \u2014 the fastest-growing rent price in Dallas-Fort Worth. Euless also had the largest growth rate month-over-month, with rents soaring 6.2 percent from May to June.<\/p>\n<p>Euless may have climbed the most, but the most expensive rents for one- and two-bedroom apartments in the area were in Frisco, at $1,630.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas saw the second-highest jump in rent prices year-over-year in June, with rent prices for single-bedroom apartments rising 1.4 percent to $1,450. Two-bedroom apartments in Dallas dropped 1.5 percent year-over-year to $2,000, tying with The Colony for the second-highest rent for two-bedroom units in the metro.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 DFW cities with the most expensive one-bedroom rent prices in June were:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ee-ul\">\n<li>Frisco \u2013 $1,630<\/li>\n<li>The Colony \u2013 $1,580<\/li>\n<li>Rockwall \u2013 $1,570<\/li>\n<li>Richardson \u2013 $1,560<\/li>\n<li>Farmers Branch \u2013 $1,460<\/li>\n<li>Dallas \u2013 $1,450<\/li>\n<li>Plano \u2013 $1,410<\/li>\n<li>Euless \u2013 $1,370<\/li>\n<li>Carrollton and McKinney (tied) \u2013 $1,330<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By comparison, Fort Worth is a real bargain: Rent fell nearly 4 percent year-over-year to $1,230 for a one-bedroom apartment.
