Affordable buildings near transit in Murray Hill

On this page, “affordable” is a market-relative filter: the building’s median asking rent is below the Murray Hill neighborhood median. It is not tied to income limits.

It’s a location-based filter meant to keep your commute options closer. You should still verify the exact subway stop(s) you’ll use and walk/transfer time for the schedule you’ll follow.

Openigloo surfaces building pages with structured signals, renter-focused Q&A, and a building rating summary. Use the filters to shortlist, then confirm lease details and costs directly with the building.

No. These filters are about market-relative asking rent and location, not income-restricted housing, not subsidized units, not NYCHA, not HPD, not Section 8, and not a housing-lottery/affordable-housing program.

Yes. The asking rent may not cover everything. Confirm the full monthly cost (broker fee where applicable, deposit, and utilities) and any recurring building fees before you commit.

Ask about renewal expectations and rent adjustments, utility responsibility for the unit, any building rules that affect your schedule (package handling, elevator access, visitor policies), and whether there are any non-refundable fees tied to the apartment.
