In most cases, you cannot go to jail for simply failing to pay apartment rent, as debt is generally considered a civil matter rather than a criminal one. However, if you have a lease agreement that includes specific terms regarding non-payment or if you engage in fraudulent activities related to the lease, legal consequences could arise. Landlords can pursue eviction and seek monetary judgments against tenants for unpaid rent, but incarceration is not a typical outcome for unpaid rent alone. Always consult local laws for specifics, as regulations can vary by jurisdiction.
