AvalonBay Communities, Inc., an equity REIT, has a long-term track record of developing, redeveloping, acquiring and managing distinctive apartment homes in some of the best U.S. markets, and delivering outsized, risk-adjusted returns to shareholders. With equal parts experience and vision, we’ve established a leadership position rooted in our purpose of creating a better way to live and that is always focused on building value for the long term.

We have a long-standing history of growth in some of the best performing U.S. markets, marked by characteristics that include growing employment in high wage sectors of the economy, higher cost of home ownership, and a diverse and vibrant quality of life.

These include long-established markets in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Pacific Northwest, Northern and Southern California as well as newer, expansion markets such as Denver, Southeast Florida, Charlotte and Raleigh/Durham, NC, and Dallas and Austin, TX.

We have created four distinct apartment community brands based on a deep knowledge of our customers and what they are looking for in an apartment living experience. Our offerings – Avalon, AVA, eaves by Avalon and Kanso – allow us to address different needs of the renter market, penetrate our core markets more deeply to reach new customers, and better serve existing residents.

At AvalonBay, we’re driven by a bold purpose: creating a better way to live. We do this by providing distinctive apartment living experiences and contributing to the vitality of local communities. All AvalonBay associates have a role to play in bringing our purpose to life.
