Average rent in Missouri

The median asking rent in Missouri is $1,595 as of July 2026, based on active rental listings statewide. We report the median — the midpoint of asking rents — because it tracks the typical listing more reliably than a simple average, which luxury and outlier listings can skew.

Against an average home value of $223,000, that rent level prices Missouri at a 9.18% gross rental yield. Rent and yield vary widely by metro — use the metro breakdown below to compare individual Missouri markets.
