Silvercrest at College View offers competitive pricing for its accommodations, particularly when compared to both Johnson County and the broader Kansas state averages. For a one-bedroom unit, residents can expect to pay $3,400 per month, which is notably lower than the county average of $4,262 and fairly close to the state average of $3,859. The studio apartments are priced at $4,300, slightly beneath Johnson County's average of $4,549 but higher than the state's average of $4,094. In contrast, two-bedroom units at Silvercrest are priced at $5,400 - this rate surpasses the county's average of $4,411 and starkly exceeds the state average of $3,562. Overall, while Silvercrest presents an attractive option for one-bedroom and studio living in this market context, potential residents should weigh these figures against their needs when considering a two-bedroom arrangement.
