Do you share an apartment or house with multiple people, but aren’t sure how to divide up the rent? Not all bedrooms are created equal, but the Split the Rent calculator can help you figure out who owes what. It accounts for variables like bedroom size, private bathrooms, windows, closet space, and the amount of common space in the home.

One thing that this calculator doesn’t correct for is the differences in utilities consumed because of differently-sized rooms, varying schedules, or freeloading significant others who are always around.
