No. These are market-rate apartments for rent that fall within Openigloo's market-relative affordable threshold for this scope. They are not income-restricted, subsidized, lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 units unless a separate program is specifically stated by the landlord or agent.

Openigloo sets it at the 25th percentile of gross rents for this scope, then clamps it to a safe floor and ceiling so the filter stays realistic. For this page, that means asking rents at or below $4,200.

Location within the building, unit size, finishes, amenities, views, lease length, and move-in timing can all affect rent. The full monthly cost can also change once you add fees, utilities, deposit, and any broker fee.

Check the latest building reviews, application requirements, move-in fees, pet rules if relevant, and whether the lease term fits your budget. A high rating does not remove the need to verify the current unit's condition and total cost.

The neighborhood's most common bedrooms are studios and 1-bedrooms, so unit size and bedroom count can move the rent quickly. Use the $3,957 median rent and the $4,200 ceiling as reference points, then compare the full monthly cost before you commit.

No. Top rated buildings on Openigloo reflect review scores, but individual units can still differ on noise, maintenance, and management response. Recent reviews and the current lease terms still matter.
