Because this page is limited to studios, you are comparing a single-bedroom layout type against 65+ apartments for rent in Upper West Side. That makes the $3,905 median rent a useful reference point, but you should still compare each unit’s size, light, storage, and condition.

No. On Openigloo, rent-stabilized is a market regulation category, not an official affordable-housing program. It does not mean income-restricted, subsidized, lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing.

This page is filtered for apartments marked as rent-stabilized in the current inventory. That status reflects regulatory protections for the unit, but you should still confirm the exact lease paperwork and unit details with the landlord or agent.

Check the full monthly cost, including fees, utilities, security deposit, and any broker fee. Also confirm renewal terms, whether there are building-specific rules, and whether the studio layout works for your sleeping area, kitchen setup, and storage needs.

Location within the neighborhood, building age, amenities, and lease terms can all change the real cost. A unit with a similar asking rent may still cost more once you add fees, utilities, or other move-in charges.
