How to find historical rent prices for a specific area?

How to find single family house historical rent prices for a specific area?

Zillow data only gives you historical data for SFR in the metro level but not city or zip code level.

Where else can I find historical rental data for a city/zip?

I'm trying to compare 2 cities to see how the rents go up there year over year.

We've been scraping rental comps from Zillow for the last 18 months. We have it mapped out across Northern Nevada and use it to analyze every active property simultaneously. 

Besides scraping, I don't know how one is able to look at the historical data.
