Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near SIM1C Eltingville - Manhattan Express in Manhattan

It means the apartments are in the rent-stabilized category, which generally comes with regulated rent increases and renewal protections. It does not mean the apartment is low-cost or free of fees.

No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not an official affordable-housing program. These are market-rate apartments with rent regulation, so the asking rent and all move-in costs still matter.

This page is not using Openigloo's affordable filter. For rent-stabilized apartments, the key idea is regulation status, not a market-relative affordable threshold.

Look at the layout carefully: where you would sleep, how the kitchen is placed, whether there is enough storage, and whether the single bathroom setup works for your routine.

Confirm the broker fee, security deposit, lease length, any application fees, and whether the apartment has rules that affect renewal or roommate use. The asking rent does not capture the full monthly or move-in cost.

Use the 453+ apartment count, the $4,244 median rent, and the studio size together. A studio budget should leave room for move-in costs and any recurring fees beyond rent.
