Gen Z isn’t just entering the rental market, they’re reshaping it.

According to the Apartments.com 2025 Q4 renter survey, Gen Z already accounts for 23% of renters and is on track to become the largest renting generation by 2030.

So what does that mean?

➡️ More focus on location, convenience, and walkability
➡️ A digital‑first mindset (think virtual tours and online discovery)
➡️ A higher value placed on flexibility and lifestyle

For student housing? These trends aren’t surprising, they’re the standard.
