Good cause is a tenant-protection category, not a neighborhood or building style. It signals that certain rent increases or non-renewals may be limited, but you should still confirm the building's status and the lease terms before applying.

No. This page uses a market-relative affordable apartments filter, not an official affordable-housing program. It includes apartments with asking rents at or below the 25th percentile of gross rents for this Brooklyn 1-bedroom scope, capped at $3,400.

Openigloo sets it using the 25th percentile of gross rents for this Brooklyn 1-bedroom scope, then clamps it to a safe floor and ceiling. Here, that ceiling is $3,400, so the filter is meant to show lower-priced market-rate options in this scope.

Check broker fees, security deposit, utilities, move-in timing, and any lease rules tied to the building. Even if the asking rent fits the filter, the full monthly cost can be higher once fees and utilities are included.

Location, building age, amenities, unit size, and lease terms all affect asking rent. In the same borough, a 1-bedroom in a newer or amenity-heavy building may cost more than one in an older building with fewer extras.
