How to use this data
Compare an apartment's asking rent with the percentile range for the same bedroom count. A listing below the 30th percentile is inexpensive relative to this sample; one above the 70th percentile is at the higher end. Differences in condition, concessions, exact location, amenities, and listing age can still explain a large price gap.
Use this number to check the income required under NYC's 40x rule, learn how to find rent-stabilized apartments, or decide when to start your search.
