Wilton Manors, Broward County's LGBT-friendly "Island City," is a small, dense rental market wedged between Fort Lauderdale and Oakland Park along the Wilton Drive corridor. Most of what's listed as "apartments" here is actually single-family homes, duplexes, and condos for rent — genuine multi-unit apartment communities are a short list, ranging from a renovated boutique property on Wilton Drive to a handful of older, smaller garden-style buildings just off North Andrews Avenue.
One-bedroom rents in Wilton Manors run from roughly $1,500 at older, no-frills walk-ups to $2,500+ at newer renovated communities near Wilton Drive, with the citywide average hovering around $1,600/month as of mid-2026 — slightly below the broader Fort Lauderdale metro.

Florida renter essentials
Renters insurance is not optional here. Many Florida leases require it, and standard policies generally do not cover flood damage — that may require separate coverage, even in an apartment. Before signing, look up the building's flood zone on FEMA's flood map service and ask which evacuation zone it sits in.
Ask about the real monthly cost. A recurring theme in public resident feedback is fee stacking: valet trash, common-area electric, mandatory bulk internet, pest control, admin and tech fees. Get the full itemized monthly figure in writing before you apply.
Tour with the AC running and ask about hurricanes. Humidity control is the difference between a fine unit and a moldy one; ask how old the AC is. And ask directly how the building handled the last major storm — communities that performed well say so happily, and reviewers call out the ones that didn't.
