Apartment pricing is like buying a car. Your monthly car payment will be a combination of factors such as the car model, the car's amenities (does it have heated seats and a tech system?), and the length of your car loan. In the same way, apartment pricing is based on a variety of factors, including availability of the apartment type, special benefits such as a great view, and the length of the lease.
