The filter is location-based, but walking distance and real-world timing vary by block and building entrance. Confirm the nearest stop and walking route during a visit.

Ask what’s been updated (heat/hot water, electrical, plumbing), how maintenance requests are handled, and what utilities cost. Also confirm any building rules that affect your day-to-day, like laundry access or package handling.

Openigloo surfaces renter experiences and open-data signals, but it can’t replace what you learn directly from the building. Treat the page as a starting point, then confirm details with leasing or the super during your tour.

The page includes an average across rated buildings, but the number of rated buildings is limited. Use ratings as one data point and read the underlying renter questions and photos for context.
