Living alone is a peak privilege in New York, but that’s because it comes at a high cost. Studios and one-bedrooms ain’t cheap, and it’s shocking how little the price jumps up when you change your search settings from them to three or more bedroom units. It’s still pricey, of course, but it’s like adding a person to your Uber Pool or Lyft Line ride: your buddy only costs you a buck extra, a number which pales compared to the price of the trip itself (which you can now split with them, heyo). Check out our picks below, they’ve all got one-bathroom, three-bedrooms and are under $2,000/month.
“Spa shower, shiny fixtures”
Crown Heights
$1,925/month
Three-bedroom
A spiffy remodel with hardwood floors and groovy kitchen appliances, the unit also has central air conditioning and the building’s got an on-site super. It’s no-fee and pets are welcome, but if the listed address is accurate this unit isn’t “bordering Crown Heights and Bed-Stuy”. It’s pretty solidly in Brownsville.

East Flatbush
$1,925/month
Three-bedroom
Another recently renovated three-bedroom, this one also sports a single bath and brand new kitchen appliances, evidenced by the fact that they’re all wrapped in blue tape and plastic. Judging by the mapped location, this one is also mis-neighborhooded: looks more like Ditmas Park than East Flatbush.

That’s a lot of living space! The bedrooms aren’t notably massive, but the living room is. This top floor apartment has enough space for a commune, or at least a comfortable 4th bedroom (if temporary partitions can be deemed comfortable)
