Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near 5 Train in Midtown South, Manhattan

It means the apartments are in buildings where good cause tenant-protection rules may apply. That can affect certain rent increases or non-renewals, but you should still verify the building’s rules and your lease terms.

There are 13+ studio apartments for rent near the 5 Train in Midtown South, Manhattan, with a median rent of $4,795.

Confirm renewal rules, any rent-increase notice requirements, and whether the lease or building policy changes how protections apply. Also check fees, deposits, and broker fee details.

In a studio, one room often has to serve as the sleeping area, living space, and sometimes the work area. Make sure the kitchen setup, storage, and bathroom layout fit the way you live, since a smaller unit can still have high move-in and monthly costs.

No. Good cause is a tenant-protection category, not income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing. It does not mean the apartment is part of NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or any official affordable-housing program.

In the latest snapshot for this scope, trending neighborhoods include 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.

Use the asking rent as only one part of the decision. Fees, deposits, utilities, and lease terms can change the real monthly cost, even when the building has tenant protections.
