What is the best flooring for low income 1 bedroom?

I have a one bedroom in Lincoln, NE.  Tenant moved out and I'm looking to take advantage of the vacancy to update the flooring.  I'm looking for advise for the best flooring to put in throughout this one bedroom.  I would put the flooring in the kitchen, Livingroom, and bedroom approximately 700 square feet total.  I did a search in the forums and came up with 100's of results for flooring but they were posted 5-7 years ago.  I'm thinking there may be some updates on which is the best product.  Thanks for your time!

    Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) has a great look, is easy to install, and it holds up well even with water damage. Use that for the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Use carpet in the bedroom, standard shag, medium tan color.

    LVP almost regardless of the property class because it is tenant proof so it will almost always give you a better return over any other flooring.

    @Troy Froistad LVP! Cheap, resistant and tenants love it. For a fraction of the cost of hardwoods LVP serves up hardwood looks/feels and durability. Simply can’t go wrong with it!
