Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near Lower East Side Route in Financial District, Manhattan

It means the apartment is categorized as rent-stabilized, which generally affects how rents can increase and how renewals are handled. It does not mean the unit is discounted or that every cost is fixed.

There are 117+ apartments for rent on this page, with a median rent of $4,182.

Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not income-restricted housing. It does not mean the unit is part of a housing lottery, NYCHA, Section 8, or another official affordable-housing program.

Confirm the current rent, renewal terms, broker fee, security deposit, utilities, and whether the unit is actually stabilized. Ask for the lease language and any addenda before you sign.

With studios, the unit count, median rent, and bedroom count matter together because you are paying for a smaller floor plan and usually a single main living space. Make sure the layout works for sleeping, cooking, and storage before you stretch your budget.

In this scope, the trending neighborhoods are 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. These counts are for nearby market activity, not this page's inventory.
