\n Manhattan Rents Are Up 9.0% as All Four Boroughs Post Increases in Realtor.com<\/i>
\n \u00ae’s Q2 2026 NYC Rental Report<\/i>\n <\/p>\n

\n AUSTIN, Texas<\/span>, July 28, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — This year’s college graduates heading to New York City for work are looking at the most expensive rental market the city has posted since Realtor.com\u00ae<\/sup> began tracking in 2019. The median asking rent climbed to $3,707 in the second quarter of 2026, up $164, or 4.6%, year over year. A studio apartment alone would consume 38.2% of a typical Computer Science graduate’s starting New York City salary and 45.2% of a Business graduate’s, according to the Q2 2026 NYC Rental Report from Realtor.com<\/a>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Nationally, the math is far less punishing for new grads. Measuring the class of 2026 national salary against the median asking rent for a studio, a typical studio across the 50 largest U.S. metros would consume just 20.9% of a Computer Science graduate’s salary and 24.8% of a Business graduate’s, roughly half the share required in New York City.<\/p>\n

“For new graduates entering the New York City rental market this summer, the affordability math is tougher than it’s been in years,” said Jiayi Xu, economist at Realtor.com\u00ae<\/sup>. “Smaller units are in stronger demand, and that’s pushing prices up fastest for the very apartments recent grads are most likely able to choose.”<\/p>\n

Using Class of 2026 salary projections from the National Association of Colleges and Employers, adjusted with a 20% geographic premium to reflect New York City wage levels,\u00a0Realtor.com\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0estimates a Computer Science graduate would earn about $98,000 in the city and a Business graduate about $83,000.<\/p>\n

\n A Market Already Stretched Before Grads Arrive<\/b>
\n
The rent grads are facing reflects a broader run-up already underway across the city. New York City rents now sit 30.5% above pre-pandemic levels, compared with a 16.4% gain nationally over the same span. The city saw some of the steepest rent declines of any major metro early in the COVID-19 pandemic, but its median asking rent rebounded to pre-pandemic levels by spring 2022 and has climbed every year since.<\/p>\n

That pressure is concentrated at the entry level of the market, the same segment new grads and young professionals are competing in. The median asking rent for units with zero to two bedrooms rose 7.3% year over year to $3,544 in the second quarter, while rent for larger three-plus bedroom units fell 0.6% to $4,886. The divergence suggests renters are competing hardest for compact, more affordable apartments, while fewer households are moving up to larger, pricier units, a pattern that often emerges when high housing costs push renters to double up or delay a move rather than expand their space.<\/p>\n

\n
All four boroughs posted year-over-year rent increases in the second quarter. Manhattan led with a 9.0% jump to $5,117, followed by Brooklyn at 5.9% to $4,054, Queens at 5.6% to $3,561, and the Bronx at 0.9% to $3,171. To afford a typical rental while following the standard 30% income guideline, a household would need to earn $204,680 a year in Manhattan, $162,160 in Brooklyn, $142,440 in Queens, and $126,840 in the Bronx.<\/p>\n

“Every corner of the city saw rents move higher this quarter, from Manhattan’s high end all the way down to the Bronx,” said\u00a0Xu. “That kind of broad-based increase makes it hard for any renter, not just this year’s graduates, to find a foothold right now.”<\/p>\n

Whether that pressure eases will depend on how much new supply reaches the market ahead of next year’s leasing season, and whether smaller, entry-level units keep absorbing the bulk of renter demand.<\/p>\n
