The Radius+ team compared how rates trended in two of the best Self Storage markets in the country. NYC, NY and Los Angeles, CA! We looked at REIT rate data for 10×10 CC units.

January 1st 2023 – November 5, 2023 –
Average Price Per Square Ft: – NYC: $1.95 – LA: $2.11

January 1st 2024 – November 5, 2024 –
Average Price Per Square Ft: – NYC: $1.77 – LA: $1.83

Percentage change:
– NYC: 9.3% decrease – LA: 13.3% decrease

While the rates are higher in LA than NYC it appears that demand softened less in the NYC market as rates saw a smaller percentage decrease year over year!
