What does good cause mean on this page?

Good cause refers to a tenant-protection category, not a neighborhood or building quality score. It can limit certain rent increases or non-renewals, so confirm the building’s status and lease terms before you apply.

What is the median rent here?

The median rent is $2,762 for this page’s current scope. That gives you a quick sense of the middle of the market, but individual apartments can still vary by bedroom count, condition, and location.

Is this income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing?

No. This is a market rental filter, not an official affordable-housing program. The under $3,000 filter selects apartments with asking rents at or below the page’s price cap, and good cause is a tenant-protection category.

What should I compare before applying?

Look at the bedroom count, the building’s reviews, and the full monthly cost. In All Upper Manhattan, 1-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms are the most common, so unit size and lease terms can change how far your budget goes.

What costs and restrictions should I confirm with the agent?

Ask about broker fees, security deposit, utilities, lease length, and any building-specific rules. Even in a good cause building, the asking rent is only part of the total cost.
