Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near 7 Train in Midtown South, Manhattan

It means the apartments are tagged as rent-stabilized, a regulatory category that can limit certain rent increases and provide renewal protections. It is not the same as affordable housing, and you should verify the status for any unit before you apply.

No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not an income-restricted or subsidized housing program. It does not mean NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or housing-lottery housing.

This filter is about regulatory status, not income limits. A rent-stabilized apartment can still have a market-rate asking rent, so the monthly cost and lease terms still matter.

With 14+ apartments for rent, studio inventory is limited, so the median rent of $4,678 is a useful budgeting reference but not a guarantee of what you will see in each building. Studios near the 7 Train can vary a lot by size, building age, and amenities.

Check whether there is enough space for a separate sleeping area, where storage will go, and whether the kitchen setup works for daily use. Also confirm fees, deposit requirements, utilities, and any lease rules before you submit an application.

East Village has 225+ apartments for rent, Hell's Kitchen has 388+ apartments for rent, Stuyvesant Town/PCV has 268+ apartments for rent, Kips Bay has 221+ apartments for rent, and Yorkville has 196+ apartments for rent.

Location near transit, building age, amenities, and lease terms can all change the monthly cost. Even with a rent-stabilized tag, the full price can shift once you add fees, utilities, and move-in charges.
