It is set at the 25th percentile of gross rents for this neighborhood and bedroom scope, then clamped to a safe floor or ceiling so the filter stays realistic.

The median rent is $4,070 and the affordable ceiling is $5,000, so the page includes units below and above the midpoint but keeps the scope under the cap.

Location, building age, amenities, and lease terms can all change the asking rent. A unit can qualify on price and still have higher total monthly costs once fees and utilities are included.

Check the full monthly cost, broker fee if any, security deposit, utilities, and lease length. Also confirm whether the building has move-in rules or application requirements.
