Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near transit in Murray Hill, Manhattan

There are 25+ apartments for rent in this scope. The median rent is $4,037, which can help you gauge whether a studio fits your budget before you tour.

No. Rent-stabilized on Openigloo is a regulatory category, not income-restricted, subsidized, housing-lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing. It focuses on rent and renewal rules, not official affordable-housing programs.

It helps you focus on apartments where regulated rent increases and renewal protections may apply, while the near-transit scope helps you keep the commute practical. You should still confirm the actual station access, line options, and commute time from the building.

Check whether there is a clear sleeping area, where the kitchen is placed, and how much storage you have. In a studio, the single room has to handle everyday living, so layout matters as much as rent.

Ask about broker fee, security deposit, move-in charges, utilities, and any amenity or application fees. Those costs can change the real monthly budget more than the asking rent alone.

The $4,037 median rent is a snapshot of what is typical in this scope, but any individual apartment can be above or below it. Use it as a planning reference, then compare it with the unit's size, condition, and total move-in cost.
