Rent-Stabilized Studio Apartments in NYC

Browse 184 rent-stabilized studio apartments across NYC. The median rent in this search is $3,844, so budget planning should account for both the studio layout and regulated lease terms. Rent-stabilized means rent increases and renewals follow specific rules, but that does not remove all move-in costs or building policies. Confirm the current rent, lease term, and any fees before you apply, and make sure the space works for a studio setup with sleeping, kitchen, and storage in one unit.

  • What to expect: 184 active studio listings across neighborhoods including the Upper West Side, Financial District, Astoria, and Battery Park City.
  • Budget check: the median rent is $3,844, so compare each studio’s price with the space you actually need.
  • Confirm the lease terms: rent-stabilized apartments follow regulated renewal and increase rules, but you should still verify the current lease structure.
  • Watch for move-in costs: ask about application fees, security deposit, and any required broker or building charges.
  • Studio-specific check: look closely at sleeping area placement, kitchen size, closet space, and whether there is only one bathroom.
  • Neighborhood mix: high-activity areas in this search include the Financial District, Upper West Side, and Battery Park City, which can affect price and availability.
