Apartments for Rent in Staten Island, NY

If the idea of living in New York City appeals to you but you want a slightly less crowded place to call home, a place where far fewer tourists tend to venture, then Staten Island might be for you. Most residents rely on the Staten Island Ferry to get to lower Manhattan, especially since many New Yorkers don’t own cars. However, if you’re planning to drive, you can also reach Staten Island from Brooklyn over the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge.

While Staten Island doesn’t contain the large number of landmarks you’ll find in Manhattan, there are a few terrific destinations to explore, such as Conference House Park. This park contains four historic buildings dating back to the late 1600s. The Conference House was the site of an unsuccessful Revolutionary War peace conference, held in 1776. The park also contains playgrounds, a canoe launch, and dog-friendly areas. In the summer, residents head to the beautiful beaches and the Franklin D. Roosevelt Boardwalk.

Comparatively speaking, the cost of living in Staten Island is lower than the other city boroughs. Houses are about 37 percent cheaper than in Manhattan. Still, home prices hover around $660,000 in Staten Island, which is higher than the state average. Utilities and transportation costs are also higher than the state average. However, many residents prefer Staten Island because some areas (especially those on the south end) provide a quieter, more suburban feel with ample green space and amazing views.

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!
