NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — <\/strong>New York saw the largest jump in rents for one-bedroom apartments since 2021, according to a new study from LendingTree<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The report won’t come as a surprise to many New Yorkers, who are used to shelling out a significant part of their income just to live in the city.<\/p>\n

But the numbers put the increases into focus: Between fiscal years 2021 and 2026, Fair Market Rents for one-bedrooms increased an average of $457 in 50 U.S. metros\u2014but they rose by $854 in NYC, from $1,801 to $2,655.<\/p>\n

Fair Market Rents (FMRs) are the federal benchmarks HUD uses to set housing assistance levels, based on what moderately priced, standard-quality rental units cost\u2014typically around the 40th-percentile rent in a given area.<\/p>\n

The runner-up for rent increases was San Diego, where one-bedroom rents spiked by $817, from $1,642 to $2,459.<\/p>\n

On average across the 50 metros, one-bedroom rents increased from $1,122 in fiscal year 2021 to $1,578 in fiscal year 2026, a jump of 40.7%.<\/p>\n

The increases have been a \u201cmassive strain\u201d on renters, the report found.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe reality for most renters is that their wages have likely not kept up with these rent increases,\u201d the report said, citing a figure by the U.S. Treasury that found 90% of Americans live in counties where median rents and home prices grew faster than median incomes between 2000 and 2020.<\/p>\n
