Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near 4 Train in Yorkville, Manhattan

Good cause refers to buildings covered by tenant-protection rules that can affect rent increases and non-renewal conditions. It does not mean a lower asking rent, and it is separate from price filters.

There are 49+ studio apartments for rent on this page, with a median rent of $3,300.

No. Good cause is a tenant-protection category, not an affordable-housing program. These apartments are not necessarily income-restricted, subsidized, lottery units, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing.

Compare each asking rent with the $3,300 median rent, then look at the building condition, lease terms, and any added costs. The monthly total can change a lot once fees and utilities are included.

Ask whether the unit is in a good cause building, what protections apply, and whether there are broker fees, deposits, or move-in charges. For studios, also check layout and storage because one room has to cover sleeping and living space.

Openigloo gives you renter-focused building and landlord reviews so you can spot maintenance issues, management patterns, and lease concerns before you apply.

Location near the 4 Train, building age, amenities, lease terms, and extra fees can all change the real monthly cost even when two studios have similar asking rents.
