Rent-stabilized 1-bedroom apartments for rent in Long Island City

It means the apartments for rent on this page are tagged as rent-stabilized, which typically involves regulated rent increases and renewal protections. It does not remove the need to check the lease, building rules, and move-in costs.

There are 37 apartments for rent on this page, and the median rent is $4,689. That gives you a current snapshot for budget planning, but actual asking rents and fees can still vary by building.

No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not an official affordable-housing program. These are market-rate apartments for rent with rent-stabilized protections, so they are not income-restricted, subsidized, housing-lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 units.

Openigloo uses building and unit information tied to the rent-stabilized category for this scope. You should still verify the unit’s status in the lease and ask the agent or landlord for any renewal and increase rules that apply.

Check the full monthly cost, including broker fee, security deposit, utilities, and any other move-in charges. Also confirm lease length, renewal terms, and any building restrictions that could affect your budget.

Long Island City has a mix of 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments, so unit count and bedroom type can affect how fast prices move. For a 1-bedroom search, compare the median rent with your monthly limit and leave room for fees and recurring building costs.
