Good cause is a tenant-protection category. It can affect how rent increases or non-renewals are handled, but it does not mean the rent is lower or that every unit has the same lease terms.

It is not the same thing. Good cause is a tenant-protection category, while affordable on Openigloo is a market-relative filter based on asking rent. This page is not income-restricted, subsidized, lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing.

For market-relative affordability filters, Openigloo uses the 25th percentile of gross rents for the page’s scope and keeps it within a realistic floor and ceiling. Good cause itself is a protection category, not a price formula.

Confirm the full monthly cost, including utilities, deposits, broker fee if any, and any move-in charges. Also check whether the good cause status applies to the building or only certain units.

With studio apartments for rent, layout and total cost matter as much as the asking rent. Compare how the sleeping area, kitchen, storage, and single bathroom fit your daily routine, and factor in the 15+ unit count with the $4,684 median rent when setting your budget.
