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

It’s a renter-behavior signal used to prioritize buildings where tenants tend to stay longer. It’s meant to help you focus on stability, but you should still confirm the specifics (maintenance, lease terms, and responsiveness) for the unit you’re considering.

What does “near the M2 bus” include?

The page is scoped to Washington Heights buildings that fall within the M2-bus proximity criteria used by Openigloo for this filter. Still, confirm the distance to your actual start/end points with a quick walk-time check.

How does Openigloo help me compare buildings beyond the filter?

Openigloo building pages compile tenant Q&A and renter-focused signals. Use them to compare how buildings handle common issues (repairs, noise, management follow-through) and to reduce guesswork when you’re evaluating apartments for rent.

Does “high tenant retention” guarantee there won’t be problems with my specific unit?

No. Retention is a building-level trend, not a promise about any one apartment. Before signing, ask about the condition of the unit, expected timeline for repairs, and how disputes are handled during your lease term.

What should I ask the broker or landlord before applying?

Ask about the full move-in cost (not just asking rent), the exact lease start date, utilities responsibility, and any required documentation. Also ask whether there are restrictions that affect your household (for example, subletting rules or building policies) if those are relevant.

Is the retention data based on the same period as today?

It’s based on available signals used by Openigloo at snapshot time, so it can lag behind short-term changes. Use it as a starting filter, then validate current conditions directly with the building.

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope?

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Hell's Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.
