Studio apartments for rent in good cause buildings in Midtown South

Good cause refers to a tenant-protection category. It is used to flag apartments in buildings where certain rent increases or non-renewal rules may be limited by law, depending on the situation and lease details.

There are 11 studio apartments for rent on this page. The count reflects current inventory in Midtown South, Manhattan, within the good cause filter.

The median rent is $4,795. Use it as a benchmark, but individual asking rents can still be above or below that number.

Studios can be easier to price by rent, but you still need to plan for layout limits, storage, and the full monthly cost. In Midtown South, the unit count and median rent suggest you should compare each apartment's asking rent with expected fees and move-in costs.

Confirm the lease terms, renewal language, application fee, security deposit, broker fee if any, and whether the building's good cause status applies to the specific unit you want.

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

In this scope, trending neighborhoods include East Village, Hell's Kitchen, Stuyvesant Town/PCV, Kips Bay, and Yorkville.
