Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near SIM24 Prince's Bay - Midtown Manhattan Express in Midtown South, Manhattan

It refers to buildings covered by tenant-protection rules that can limit certain rent increases or non-renewal situations. It is not a neighborhood, and it does not guarantee every unit will have the same lease terms, so check the exact building rules before applying.

There are 13+ studio apartments for rent in this scope as of 2026-07-04. Because this is a live inventory count, availability can change quickly.

The median rent is $4,795. Use that as a planning benchmark, but compare each apartment’s asking rent, fees, and move-in costs before deciding.

Confirm the renewal terms, rent increase rules, security deposit, broker fee if any, and whether utilities or other charges are included. Tenant protections can still vary by building and lease structure.

With studios, the unit count, median rent, and one-room layout all matter together. Make sure the sleeping area, kitchen setup, storage, and bathroom layout work for your budget and daily routine.

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. These are live counts and can shift.

No. Good cause status is about tenant protections, not a discount or affordability program. You still need to compare the asking rent, fees, and total monthly cost against your budget.
