1-bedroom apartments in good cause buildings for rent near SIM24 Prince's Bay - Midtown Manhattan Express in Kips Bay, Manhattan

Good cause is a tenant-protection category. It does not mean a specific neighborhood or a guaranteed rent discount. It points you to apartments in buildings that may have limits on certain rent increases or non-renewals, so you should still review the lease and building rules carefully.

There are 69+ apartments for rent on this page, and the median rent is $5,250. Since this page is for 1-bedroom apartments, that rent level is a useful baseline for budget planning, but actual pricing can vary by building, location, and lease terms.

Start with the $5,250 median rent, then add broker fees if any, the security deposit, utilities, and move-in charges. For 1-bedroom apartments, unit count, building quality, and commute convenience can all push asking rent above or below the median.

No. Good cause on Openigloo is a market and tenant-protection filter, not an income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery category. It helps you find apartments in buildings with certain tenant-protection characteristics, but the asking rent is still a market rent.

The filter is based on building status in Openigloo's data, not on your income or an official housing program. It is used to surface apartments in buildings where tenant-protection rules may apply, so you should confirm the lease language and building status before applying.

Confirm broker fees, security deposit amount, pet rules if relevant, lease length, renewal terms, and whether any building-specific requirements apply. Tenant-protection status does not remove standard move-in costs or lease obligations.
