1-bedroom apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M42 United Nations - W 42 St Pier in Murray Hill, Manhattan

Good cause is a tenant-protection category, not a neighborhood or building style. It generally points to limits on certain rent increases or non-renewals, but you still need to read the lease and confirm how the protections apply to the unit.

There are 76+ 1-bedroom apartments for rent on this page right now. That count is current inventory, so it can change as apartments are taken off the market or added.

The median rent is $5,575. For a 1-bedroom search, that helps set a budget, but the actual monthly cost can still vary by building condition, exact location, and lease terms.

Confirm the lease length, renewal terms, any fees, the security deposit, and whether the unit is actually covered by the good cause rules you expect. Also ask about utilities and any move-in charges.

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

Location near transit, building age, amenities, lease length, broker fees, deposits, and utility costs can all change the real monthly cost. A lower asking rent can still be expensive once fees are included.
