Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near E Train in Hunters Point, Queens

It means the apartment is in a regulated category where certain rent increases and renewal protections may apply. It is not a neighborhood name and it does not guarantee the rent will stay low forever, so confirm the unit’s current status before you apply.

There are 29+ apartments for rent on this page, and the median rent is $3,884. For a studio, that means the asking rent should be weighed against the unit size, the building, and the full move-in cost.

No. Rent-stabilized on Openigloo is a regulatory category, not an official affordable-housing program. It does not mean the apartment is income-restricted, subsidized, lottery-based, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing.

The rent-stabilized filter is based on the page’s scoped apartment data and regulatory status, not on income or a government affordable-housing program. Openigloo uses the current inventory and renter-facing signals for this scope, so you should still verify the lease terms and unit status with the landlord or agent.

Ask whether the unit is actually rent-stabilized, what the legal rent history looks like, and whether there are any broker fees, deposits, or utility charges. Also confirm the lease term, renewal process, and any move-in requirements.

Location near the E Train, building age, amenities, lease terms, and move-in fees can all change the real monthly cost. A lower asking rent can still become expensive once you add utilities, deposits, and any broker fee.

Studios can work differently depending on layout, so check the sleeping area, kitchen setup, storage, and whether there is only one bathroom. In Queens, transit access can matter as much as the asking rent when you compare options.
