NYC Rental Prices by Subway Proximity<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re like most New Yorkers, you (unfortunately) rely heavily on the subway to get you where you need to go. As such, proximity to the nearest subway is a determining factor when choosing your next apartment. With the subway as the backbone of the city, it\u2019s pretty common knowledge that you\u2019ll pay a premium to be nearest to a subway entrance. This extra cost is often worth it, and we\u2019re reminded why every time it rains.<\/p>\n

To find out just how much that premium is, RentHop data scientist calculated median rent of all apartments within different proximities of any subway entrance in all neighborhoods and boroughs.\u00a0Below you\u2019ll find maps of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens (Fig. 2,3,4)<\/strong> demonstrating the how rent usually decreases as you get further from a subway entrance.\u00a0You\u2019ll also find a chart with all available NYC neighborhoods and their rent prices by distance to a subway\u00a0(Fig. 1).<\/strong><\/p>\n
