Why the cheapest rent in Burleson can cost more
The lowest rent on the board, until the toll road
You pick the cheapest building on the list, then your first month of commuting adds a bill nearly the size of a car payment.
Why it happens here: A daily Chisholm Trail Parkway commute from the Cleburne end runs $286.02 a month with a TollTag, enough to push a Downtown or Medical District commute from first to middle of the pack.
What we do: When we match you to buildings near work, we price the toll as its own line and run the toll-free I-35W route beside it.
The toll erases the savings
A daily CTP commute from the Cleburne end runs $286.02 a month with a TollTag. That's more than many rent gaps.
Peak drive times run long
The toll-free I-35W route can add time at peak, which matters for a fixed shift start.
Year two isn't counted
At 8.3 weeks typical, year two rises noticeably at the same base.
So we add the toll as its own line, compare the toll-free route, and show year two before you tour.
Renting new from Old Town to the Chisholm Summit area
If you're chasing the lowest rent on the Fort Worth side, Burleson usually comes up first. Our Oct 25, 2026 example here was $876 after the special, the lowest 'from' figure on our board, with 8.3 weeks typical.
The commute is what changes the ranking. A daily Chisholm Trail Parkway commute from the Cleburne end runs $286.02 a month with a TollTag (NTTA rates, Jul 1, 2025). That's enough to move Burleson from first to middle of the pack for a Downtown or Medical District job.
We price every Burleson building like all our new apartments in Fort Worth, then add the toll as its own line. If I-35W works for your commute, we price the toll-free version too.
Burleson is in Johnson County, which can change some setup details. We confirm city limits, ISD, and the electric provider for each address.
Most of the city sits in northern Johnson County, with a small piece reaching into Tarrant County, and ZIP 76028 covers both. Burleson ISD serves most addresses, and SH 174 starts at I-35W on the north side, a useful route if you work toward Cleburne.

Renters who look here often compare against these areas. We run the same 24-month math on both sides.
The CTP, I-35W, and your monthly toll
Burleson sits between the Chisholm Trail Parkway to the west and I-35W through the middle of town. The CTP runs north toward Southwest Fort Worth and the Near Southside, and I-35W runs straight to Downtown.
The CTP is 22 cents a mile with a TollTag, and ZipCash runs about double. From the Cleburne end, a daily commute runs $286.02 a month with a TollTag (NTTA, Jul 1, 2025). From Burleson the distance is shorter, and we figure your actual number with the Toll Cost Check.
Tours here pair well with Southwest Fort Worth or Mansfield buildings in one routed afternoon.

Burleson new apartment questions
Are Burleson apartments the cheapest on the Fort Worth side?

How much is the Chisholm Trail Parkway toll from here?
The CTP is 22 cents a mile with a TollTag. A daily commute from the Cleburne end runs $286.02 a month (NTTA, Jul 1, 2025). We figure your actual number per building.
Is there a toll-free way to commute?
Yes. I-35W runs to Downtown without a toll, with longer peak times. We price both routes.
Which county are these buildings in?
Most of the city is in northern Johnson County, with a small part in Tarrant County, and ZIP 76028 crosses both. Burleson ISD serves most addresses. We list county, city limits, and ISD for every building as facts.
How deep are specials here?
About the same as the north side: 8.3 weeks typical on our Oct 25, 2026 pull. Because the base is low, the year-two jump is smaller in dollars, and we show it beside each special.

Yes. We run 24-month cost for both, with tolls as a line item, so you can see which one costs less for your commute.
