Cities with the highest rents in Tehran reflect tight housing markets where demand significantly exceeds supply. Shāhedshahr leads with a median rent of $200 per month.

High rents are typically found in cities with strong economies, large populations of young professionals, and limited housing supply. These markets often have low vacancy rates and competitive rental processes.

The rent burden in these cities can be significant, with many residents spending more than 30% of their income on housing. This has fueled discussions about rent control, affordable housing development, and tenant protections in many of these communities.
