This page shows 21 3-bedroom apartments for rent in Manhattan that are tagged as good cause buildings and also meet the market-relative affordable filter for this scope.

No. Openigloo's affordable filter is market-relative, not an official affordable-housing program. It includes apartments with asking rents at or below the 25th percentile of gross rents for this Manhattan 3-bedroom scope, clamped to a $5,000 ceiling.

Openigloo sets it at the 25th percentile of gross rents for the Manhattan 3-bedroom scope, then clamps it to a safe floor and the $5,000 ceiling so the filter stays realistic.

Confirm the exact lease terms, renewal language, any rent-increase notice rules, and whether the apartment still has broker fees, deposits, or move-in charges that affect your total cost.

With 3-bedroom apartments, the number of bedrooms, unit size, and median rent all affect how the apartment fits your budget, especially if you are splitting rent across roommates or need extra space for work or storage.

Location, building age, amenities, lease length, broker fee, security deposit, and utility costs can all change the real monthly cost even when an apartment meets the $5,000 filter.

Start with the $4,273 median rent and the $5,000 ceiling, then compare neighborhood, building quality, and protections so you understand the tradeoff between price and overall monthly cost.
