No. This page is not a government affordable-housing program. It uses a market-relative affordable apartments filter, based on asking rents in this Manhattan 1-bedroom scope.

Openigloo sets the threshold using the 25th percentile of gross rents for this scope, then clamps it to a safe floor and ceiling so it stays realistic. Here, that ceiling is $4,500.

With 153+ apartments for rent and a median rent of $4,283, you can compare a unit’s asking rent against your monthly budget, then check whether the single-bedroom layout works for your storage, sleeping area, and kitchen setup.

Verified describes the quality of the apartment information on Openigloo, not a guarantee of availability or lease terms. Confirm the rent, security deposit, broker fee if any, lease length, move-in date, and building rules directly with the agent or landlord.

Location, building age, amenities, floor level, view, and lease terms can all change the total monthly cost. The asking rent is only part of the picture, so include fees and utilities when comparing apartments for rent.

Recent inventory is strongest in East Village, Hell's Kitchen, Yorkville, Lenox Hill, and Kips Bay. Those neighborhoods are worth checking first if you want more options within the Manhattan 1-bedroom affordable verified filter.
