Charlotte ranks No. 1 for pet-friendly rentals in the U.S.

When it comes to pet-friendly rentals, Charlotte is top dog. Why it matters: From parks and the rail trail to dog-friendly bars and cat cafes, Charlotte has plenty of places to take — and find — four-legged friends. And the city's rental market reflects that pet-loving culture. Driving the news: Charlotte ranks No. 1 among the nation's 50 largest metros for pet-friendly rentals, according to a new Zillow report . 91.6% of Charlotte rental listings on Zillow allow pets, compared to 77.3% nationwide. That's up from 75% in 2024, when Charlotte ranked fourth in a separate Zillow and BARK analysis. By the numbers: Nationwide, 59% of renter households have at least one pet, compared to 37% with children, per the report. Plus, 65% of renters say pet-friendliness is essential when choosing a rental. Zoom out: Austin trails Charlotte by just 0.1 percentage points, followed by Denver, Dallas and Nashville. Raleigh also lands in the top 10 at No. 6. On the flip side, Providence, Rhode Island and New York City have the fewest pet-friendly rentals among major metros. Graphic: Courtesy of Zillow. Between the lines: While Charlotte has plenty of pet-friendly housing, many animals are still waiting for homes. North
