Apartments for rent in top rated buildings in NYC

Top rated refers to buildings with stronger review scores on Openigloo. It is a building-level filter, so it helps you screen for properties with better renter feedback, not a specific neighborhood or price band.

There are 1,025+ apartments for rent in top rated buildings across this NYC scope. The median rent is $5,375, so you should budget around that level as a midpoint, while individual apartments can still sit above or below it.

Recent activity is concentrated in East Village with 259+ apartments for rent, Hell's Kitchen with 527+ apartments for rent, Yorkville with 278+ apartments for rent, and Lenox Hill with 208+ apartments for rent. Flatbush also appears in the trending neighborhood snapshot with 426+ apartments for rent.

Confirm the actual unit condition, lease length, move-in date, and total upfront cost. Even in a top rated building, broker fees, deposits, and utility costs can change the real monthly and move-in budget.

Use the neighborhood filter to compare options in places like Chelsea, Williamsburg, Long Island City, or the Upper West Side while keeping the top rated buildings filter on. That lets you focus on building quality and location at the same time.

Often they are, but price depends on neighborhood, building age, amenities, and lease terms. In this scope, the median rent is $5,375, but the asking rent for any specific apartment can be higher or lower depending on those factors.
