Openigloo sets the threshold from the 25th percentile of gross rents for this scope — here, The Bronx for 1-bedroom apartments — then clamps it to a safe floor and ceiling. For this page, that ceiling is $2,800.

Good cause is a tenant-protection category tied to limits on certain rent increases or non-renewals. It can matter for lease stability, but it does not replace reading the lease or checking building-specific rules.

Location, building age, amenities, lease terms, and the full monthly cost all matter. Broker fees, deposits, utilities, and application fees can change the real cost even when the asking rent is below $2,800.

The median rent is $2,363, which gives you a quick benchmark for this 1-bedroom market in The Bronx. Use it alongside the $2,800 ceiling to judge whether an apartment is priced near the middle of the current inventory or above it.

Confirm the lease length, renewal terms, security deposit, broker fee, and any building rules. If the building is in a good cause category, ask how that protection affects rent increases and non-renewal notices.
