It includes 857 studio apartments for rent across Manhattan, with a median rent of $4,280. You can use Openigloo to compare options by neighborhood and by renter feedback on buildings and landlords.

The $4,280 median rent is a useful midpoint for budgeting, but actual monthly costs can be higher once you add broker fees, deposits, utilities, and any building-specific charges.

Check whether the layout supports a sleeping area, a practical kitchen setup, enough storage, and a bathroom that fits your routine. In a studio, small layout differences can have a big impact on day-to-day comfort.

Openigloo lets you compare studio apartments for rent using building and landlord reviews, so you can look beyond the rent and check signals like maintenance history and renter experience before you apply.

Current high-volume areas in this Manhattan scope include Hell's Kitchen, East Village, Yorkville, Lenox Hill, and Kips Bay.

Ask about broker fees, security deposits, utilities, application fees, and any lease terms that change your upfront cost. The asking rent is only part of the full monthly and move-in expense.
