Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near colleges in Financial District, Manhattan

This page shows 117+ rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near colleges in Financial District, Manhattan. It is meant for renters looking for a studio layout in this part of Manhattan with a regulated-rent filter.

Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category. It usually means rent increases and renewal terms are governed by local rules, but you still need to read the lease and confirm the unit’s status with the landlord or agent.

No. Rent-stabilized is not the same as income-restricted, subsidized, housing-lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing. On Openigloo, this filter means the apartment is in a regulated category, not an official affordable-housing program.

The filter describes the apartment’s regulatory status, while the asking rent is the current monthly price. A rent-stabilized apartment can still have a rent that is high, so compare the asking rent with your total monthly housing cost.

With 117+ studios for rent and a median rent of $4,182, it helps to compare each unit’s asking rent against your take-home pay and move-in costs. In a studio, the layout matters as much as the price because one room has to cover sleeping, living, and often work space.

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized filter to show apartments that fall under that regulatory category in this page’s scope: studio apartments in Financial District, Manhattan near colleges. That is a status filter, not a percentile-based price filter.
