Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near M57 East Side - West Side in Manhattan

It means the apartment is in a regulated category with limits on certain rent increases and renewal rules. It is not the same as affordable housing, and each unit can still have its own lease terms, fees, and condition.

No. Rent-stabilized apartments are a market-rent category with added regulation, not income-restricted, subsidized, lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing. The asking rent still matters, and the full monthly cost can include fees, utilities, deposits, or a broker fee.

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized filter to surface apartments identified as regulated in the page’s scope. It is a status filter, not a price filter, so a unit can be rent-stabilized without being low-cost.

Use the $3,995 median rent as a benchmark for this page’s current Manhattan studio inventory. Since studio count, location, and building quality can shift the price, compare each unit’s asking rent and total move-in cost before you apply.

Location near transit, building age, amenities, lease length, and fee structure all affect affordability. A lower asking rent can still end up costing more if utilities, deposits, or broker fees are high.

Confirm the studio layout, any rent-stabilized renewal details, move-in charges, and whether the unit has enough storage and kitchen space for your needs. For Manhattan studios, a unit that looks close on paper can feel very different in person.
