Apartments for Rent in Manhattan, NY

The heart of the iconic Big Apple, Manhattan is home to some of New York City’s most well-known attractions and landmarks like the Empire State Building, Times Square, Grand Central Terminal, and Central Park. It’s hard to believe that Manhattan is an island due to its dense population, abundant attractions, and towering skyscrapers, but it is! And a large one at that.

The borough of Manhattan is a hub for all things financial, cultural, and commercial. The United Nations Headquarters is located in Midtown East, down the road from the Chrysler Building. Manhattan is home to the City College of New York and Columbia University, along with famous live music venues like the Apollo Theater. Locals enjoy catching a Broadway show in the Theater District and admiring the views of the Flatiron Building from Madison Square Park.

Manhattan residents can go shopping along 5th Avenue, watch the wildlife at Central Park Zoo, and admire the extensive collection of works at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Manhattan’s beautiful architecture, art and culture, extensive subway system, endless food options, and variety of events and activities come at a cost. Manhattan contains some of the most expensive real estate in the US, and the cost of living is about 87 percent higher than the national average. However, that doesn’t deter those who want to live in the Big Apple. The population continues to grow, topping 1.6 million in 2023.

Great news for New York renters! Apartments.com now features three new search filters: No Broker Fee to help save on upfront costs, and Walk-Up for charm without elevators. Find your perfect apartment faster with these tailored options!
