Here, affordable means apartments for rent in Midtown West asking at or below $4,300/month. The ceiling is scope-aware, so it is set for this neighborhood and bedroom mix rather than for Manhattan as a whole.

It is based on the 25th percentile of gross rents for this neighborhood and bedroom scope, then clamped to a safe floor or ceiling so it stays realistic.

The median rent is $3,975, which sits below the $4,300 affordable ceiling. That suggests many apartments for rent on this page are priced within the lower part of the current Midtown West market.
