No. Openigloo’s good cause filter is a market category focused on tenant protections, not official affordable housing, subsidies, NYCHA, Section 8, or housing-lottery units.

Good cause and rent-stabilized are different categories. Good cause focuses on tenant protections around certain rent increases or non-renewals, while rent-stabilized housing follows a separate regulatory framework.

For studio apartments, the asking rent is only part of the cost. Check the full monthly picture, including utilities, deposits, broker fees, and any building-specific charges, because the layout and price still need to work for a single sleeping and living area.

Confirm the building’s good cause status, lease term, renewal rules, fees, and any move-in requirements. Also check whether the studio has enough storage and whether the kitchen and bathroom setup fit your day-to-day use.
