The median rent is $4,031 for this page's current inventory.

No. Good cause is not income-restricted housing, subsidized housing, housing-lottery housing, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8. It is a market and tenant-protection category, so you still need to verify the full lease and monthly cost.

Good cause does not mean affordable rent. It describes tenant protections, while the asking rent can still be high relative to your budget, especially once you add fees, utilities, and a deposit.

Compare the $4,031 median rent with the unit's actual asking rent, then add move-in costs and monthly extras. In a studio, the layout matters too, because one room has to cover sleeping, cooking, and storage.

Ask whether the building charges broker fees, move-in fees, or deposits, and confirm the lease term, renewal terms, and any rules that come with the good cause building status.
