Verified 1-bedroom apartments for rent in good cause buildings in Long Island City

Good cause is a tenant-protection category. It points to buildings where certain rent increases or non-renewals may be limited, depending on the rules that apply. It is not the same as subsidized housing.

Verified means Openigloo has checked the apartment information for quality. It does not guarantee the unit is still available, and it does not replace confirming the lease terms with the agent or landlord.

There are 43+ verified 1-bedroom apartments for rent on this page, with a median rent of $4,705.

No. This page is not an official affordable-housing program. Good cause is a tenant-protection category, and verified is a listing-quality signal on Openigloo. It does not mean income-restricted, subsidized, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or lottery housing.

There is no affordable filter on this page. For Openigloo affordable pages, the threshold is based on the 25th percentile of gross rents within the page's scope, then clamped to keep it realistic. That is a market-relative affordability threshold, not a government program.

Location within Long Island City, building age, amenities, lease length, and move-in costs can all change the real monthly price. Always check utilities, deposit, and any broker fee, not just the asking rent.

Use the bedroom count, the 43+ apartment inventory, and the $4,705 median rent together to plan your budget. In Long Island City, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom units are the most common, so layout and storage can differ a lot even at similar rents.
