NEW YORK CITY (PIX11) \u2014 New Yorkers and new residents looking for apartments may be able to find neighborhoods within their budgets<\/a> a little more easily with the help of a new map.<\/p>\n

The NYC rent heat map<\/a>, produced by the real estate developer Sam Eshaghoff, uses StreetEasy data from the last four months to illustrate the average cost of rent by neighborhood across the five boroughs.<\/p>\n

Users can explore costs for one, two and three-bedroom apartments and filter by borough, proximity to subway stations and violent crime statistics.<\/p>\n

Some of the priciest rentals were found in areas like Tribeca, Soho and West Chelsea, where the average rent was $6,500, according to Eshaghoff. Williamsburg had the highest mean price in Brooklyn, with an average of $5,000 for apartments.<\/p>\n

Eshaghoff points out that pricing can also be driven by sections, such as in the Bronx, where Mott Haven had the highest median because of new luxury buildings. While apartments in Mott Haven could cost as much as $2,814, the rest of the Bronx averaged out at about $2,200.<\/p>\n

A report from the real estate company Douglas Elliman found that rents remained high<\/a> across New York City by the end of 2025.<\/p>\n

December 2025 median rental prices in Manhattan surged 8.9% to $4,720 compared to the same time in 2024. In Brooklyn, prices climbed 10.2% to $3,850. In Northwest Queens, prices jumped 7.6% to $3,652.<\/p>\n
