What does “high-retention” mean on this page?

It’s a tenant stability signal based on patterns of continued tenancy. The goal is to surface buildings where renters tend to stay, but it doesn’t guarantee renewal for any specific apartment.

How does the “M42 bus” part work for Manhattan buildings?

The page focuses on buildings near the M42 bus corridor within this Manhattan scope. It’s meant to help you shortlist for commute convenience, but you should still confirm the exact walking route and timing from the building.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

Openigloo shows 172+ buildings in Manhattan that match the high-retention + M42-bus multi-filter pair (as of 2026-07-07).

Should I rely on tenant retention signals when deciding to apply?

They’re useful for gauging stability, but you still need to confirm the apartment-specific details: lease renewal expectations, how changes are handled, and any unit-level constraints that could affect you.

What should I confirm before signing a lease, beyond the filters?

Confirm lease start and renewal terms, move-in costs (deposit and any other required fees), utility responsibility, and the building’s current policies that affect day-to-day living (packages, laundry, access rules, and maintenance response).

Are there any cautions when using review and open-data signals?

Yes. Reviews and Q&A can reflect experiences from different times, and building conditions can change. Use Openigloo signals to shortlist, then ask the building directly for current terms and policies.
