Baton Rouge Multifamilu Market Data:

After the pandemic deeply affected the Baton Rouge economy last year, the recovering employment benefitted the apartment market. Serving as the anchor of the local economy, government payrolls expanded 0.5% in the last year and was the only sector to post gains in that time. These additions contributed to total employment reached 94.7% of pre-pandemic levels by March 2021. The rebound in hiring was a factor in apartment demand soaring with nearly 1,250 net units absorbed across Greater Baton Rouge in the last four quarters. Leasing activity was positive in every submarket, though additions in the North Baton Rouge submarket facilitated a metro-leading 473 net units absorbed in the last year. While some renters targeted the new inventory, the relative affordability of the North Baton Rouge submarket underpinned demand across all classes of apartment stock. At an average of $799 in the first quarter of 2021, the submarket’s monthly effective rent fell well below the $972 metro average. Great Baton Rouge effective rent elevated 1.5% year over year as the apartment occupancy rate increased 200 basis points to 93.1%.
