What the rent range shows
For 1 bedroom apartments, the 10th-to-90th-percentile spread is $1,560 to $2,147, a difference of $587. That range describes current asking prices, not signed lease rents, and the sample size shown beside each row applies only to that bedroom size.
The neighborhood has 9 observations across available bedroom sizes. Only bedroom groups with at least five observations are published; smaller groups are withheld because a handful of listings can produce a misleading median.

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.
