Considered one of Boulder's most beautiful neighborhoods, University Hill is also one of the oldest, dating back to 1890. Amazing mountain views, mature trees, hilly roads, and gorgeous Victorian architecture is enough to bring in new residents. Add in the fact the University Hill is next door to the University of Colorado, and it's easy to see why University Hill apartments are in high demand. And yes, you'll find a variety of fraternities and sororities in University Hill, but you'll also discover a much-loved, charming neighborhood.
University Hill is filled with rentals, but you may have to compete with students from the university to get them. Once you've secured yours, you may discover you're hardly ever in it -- the rugged landscape and nearby trails will inspire you to go hiking, mountain-climbing, and mountain biking. In the evening, head to the Fox Theatre on Broadway, or head just north of the neighborhood to the very popular Pearl Street Mall, a four-block shopping area filled with shops and restaurants.
As of April 2025, the average apartment rent in University Hill is $1,713 for a studio, $1,385 for one bedroom, $2,683 for two bedrooms, and $4,720 for three bedrooms. Apartment rent in University Hill has increased by 2.7% in the past year.
