A new analysis from Realtor.com paints a startling picture of New York City’s rental market. The median asking rent in NYC accounted for 55% of a typical household income in the second quarter of 2025, almost 10% above the national median in the for-sale market, which sits at 44.5% and more than double the recent share for typical renters across the U.S. Across the boroughs, renters feel a similar, if not worse, strain.
