Buildings with high tenant retention near the BX19 bus in the Bronx

It flags buildings where tenant retention is higher based on Openigloo’s underlying data signals. It’s a useful screening factor, but it doesn’t replace confirming your specific unit’s condition, management practices, and lease terms.

Treat BX19 access as a commuting-location filter. Compare walking time to the stop, typical travel times, and whether the building’s location lines up with where you’ll spend most weekdays.

No. Retention is about aggregate patterns, not your unit’s experience. Always confirm current issues (repairs, pests, noise, amenities) and ask how management responds when problems come up.

Ask what’s included in rent, the renewal process for your unit type, the expected timing for repairs, and any building policies that affect your routine (package handling, laundry access, noise rules).

They’re a starting point. Use them to form a shortlist, then do a verification step: request current paperwork, tour if possible, and ask the building directly about anything you see mentioned repeatedly.

Concourse with 1,709+ buildings; Fordham with 967+ buildings; University Heights with 836+ buildings; Soundview with 2,493+ buildings; Norwood with 741+ buildings.

High retention can mean fewer turnover units. If you see an available apartment, confirm deadlines for application approval, move-in timing, and whether there are any waiting lists or alternatives within the same building.
