Rent-stabilized apartments for rent near L Train in Chelsea, Manhattan

It refers to apartments that may fall under rent-stabilized rules for regulated rent increases and renewal protections. You still need to confirm the unit’s status, because the label should be verified for each apartment.

There are 37+ apartments for rent in this scope, and the median rent is $5,830.

No. Rent-stabilized is not the same as income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing. This page is a market-rent filter for apartments that may have regulated rent and renewal rules, not an official affordable-housing program.

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized filter to surface apartments that appear to fall under that regulatory category in this scope. Because status can vary by unit and building, confirm it directly with the agent or landlord before applying.

Ask about broker fees, deposits, application fees, lease length, renewal terms, and any building rules. Even with rent-stabilized housing, your total monthly cost can be higher than the asking rent once fees and utilities are included.

In this scope, trending neighborhoods include Hell's Kitchen with 388+ apartments for rent, Stuyvesant Town/PCV with 268+ apartments for rent, East Village with 225+ apartments for rent, Kips Bay with 221+ apartments for rent, and Yorkville with 196+ apartments for rent.

Use the 37+ apartment count and $5,830 median rent as a starting point, then compare the specific unit’s rent, bedroom size, and fees. For rent-stabilized apartments, the monthly rent can still be high in Manhattan, so check the full move-in cost before deciding.
