With rents on the decline, he decided to look for a new place. What could he find in the East Bay for $2,000?

Bay Area man’s quest ends with three apartments to pick from.

Kenn Zuniga sits in the back of a moving truck in front of his new home in Oakland, Calif., Thursday, June 6, 2024. Once Kenn Zuniga moved into a spacious, sunny one-bedroom apartment in Central Berkeley in 2019, he couldn’t imagine wanting to live anywhere else.

As he considered a move, Zuniga realized rents around the East Bay were softening, and he wondered if he’d be able to find a spot for less than the $2,190 he paid each month for his Berkeley pad. According to data from Apartment List, rents in Oakland were down 12.2% year-over-year in June, and 8.2% in Berkeley..

The unit in Temescal caught his eye with its charming woodwork details, but he didn’t feel the neighborhood was safe enough.
