Bucks County rents were in the middle of the pack in the Philadelphia area in March, according to a new report by RENTCafé. 

RENTCafé compiled the report using data on average rents at competitively rented, large-scale, multifamily properties in the Philadelphia area. Data were gathered by Yardi Matrix via telephone survey. Only locales with a statistically relevant stock of large-scale multifamily properties were included. 

Doylestown had the highest rent at $1,581. This is above the national average of $1,407 and slightly below the Philadelphia average of $1,672. 

Doylestown, which has a 39 percent renter share, saw an increase of 5.4 percent in the average rent compared with last year. 

Levittown is next, with an average rent of $1,409 and a year-over-year increase of 9.2 percent. Bensalem follows close behind with a $1,364 average rent and an 8.2 percent increase over last year. 

Finally, among the more budget-friendly places are Warminster and Morrisville at $1,353 and $1,206, respectively. Warminster saw its average rent increase by 2.9 percent, while the rent increase in Morrisville was 2.4 percent year over year.
