Apartments for Rent in Roanoke VA

Set between the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Roanoke River, the Star City makes outdoor time part of daily life. From downtown lofts steps from the historic City Market and the Taubman Museum to quiet homes near Mill Mountain Park, apartments for rent in Roanoke put you close to trails, museums, and a thriving food scene. Commuting is straightforward: I-581 links downtown with I-81, Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport, and shopping corridors, while Amtrak's Northeast Regional serves the downtown station-handy if you're looking for rentals close to the Amtrak station or the Valley Metro bus hub downtown.
