No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not income-restricted or subsidized housing. It refers to rules around rent increases and renewals, not official affordable-housing programs.

Rent-stabilized focuses on regulation. Affordable on Openigloo would be a market-relative price filter, but this page is specifically about rent-stabilized apartments for rent, not subsidized units.

With studios, the unit count, median rent, and bedroom count all matter together. A 13+ unit inventory at a $3,880 median rent means you should compare each apartment's asking rent against your total monthly budget, not just the headline number.

Ask about broker fee, security deposit, move-in charges, renewal terms, and any building rules that could affect the apartment. Rent-stabilized units can still have different fees and lease conditions.

Check whether the sleeping area can fit your furniture, whether the kitchen setup works for daily cooking, and whether there is enough storage. In a studio, one bathroom and the overall layout can matter as much as the rent.
