What does “good cause” mean on this page?

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection category used to surface buildings where there are limits on certain rent increases and non-renewals. Confirm the protections that apply to the exact unit and lease terms with the building or landlord.

What does “near transit” cover here?

It’s a convenience filter for proximity to transit. You should still verify the walking time from the building address to your specific stops and lines, especially during off-peak and late-night hours.
