No. Good cause is a market and tenant-protection filter, not an income-restricted or subsidized housing program. It does not mean NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or lottery housing.

It can matter if you want some protection around rent increases or non-renewal rules. Still, you should verify the building’s current status and read the lease, since unit terms can vary.

The median rent of $4,236 gives a quick sense of the middle of the market for this page. For studio apartments, that number should be weighed against your need for separate sleeping space, storage, and a workable kitchen setup.

Ask about the full monthly cost, including utilities, deposits, and any broker fee. Also confirm move-in timing, renewal terms, and whether the building’s good cause status applies to the unit you want.

Openigloo uses the page’s scope and building status to show apartments that fall under the good cause category. It is a renter-protection filter, not a pricing program, so the asking rent can still be market rate.
