How this service works
Typical market rent for a US ZIP code from the Zillow Observed Rent Index (ZORI, Zillow Research's official public data, all home types, smoothed, USD per month): latest monthly value, change vs 12 months earlier, monthly history, plus city, metro and county. Index data, not individual rental listings (zillow.com listing pages block automated access). Updated monthly by Zillow; ZIPs with too few rentals are not covered.
Output
A JSON object containing the ZIP code's city, state, county, and metro area; the latest ZORI rent value in USD/month with its date; the year-over-year percentage change; an array of historical monthly rent values (up to 120 months); the Zillow region ID and size rank; a link to the source CSV; and a timestamp of when the data was checked.
Example use cases

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.jobsproperty-api.workers.dev/api/realestate/zillow-rentals-scraper-ppe?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, smoothed market-level rent data for a US ZIP code derived from Zillow's official public ZORI dataset. It is ideal for rent trend analysis, relocation research, investment underwriting, or building dashboards that track rental market conditions over time. Prefer this over scraping Zillow listing pages (which block automated access) or over less-authoritative rent estimate sources. Not suitable for retrieving individual rental listings, real-time availability, or non-US markets.
Side effects
- ZIP code with too few rental listings is not covered by ZORI — endpoint may return no data or an error for sparse markets
- Invalid or non-existent ZIP code returns an error
- ZIP code outside the US is not supported
- Request for individual rental listings will not be fulfilled — only index data is returned
- Network or upstream Zillow data source unavailability may cause failures
