In September 2026, the typical asking rent in Midtown West was $4,995 a month (the middle figure: half of listings asked more, half less), up 7.4% from $4,650 a year earlier, and the typical condo for sale was listed at $1,297,000, according to StreetEasy data.

What does typical (median) mean?
It is the middle figure: half of the listings or sales are above it and half below. A few very expensive apartments do not move it the way they would move an average.
How often are these reports updated?
Every month, when StreetEasy publishes the prior month’s figures. The mortgage rate in the example is the Freddie Mac weekly average current when the report is built.
Is the loan payment my whole monthly cost?
No. The example covers the loan only. On top of it you pay the common charges, property taxes and insurance, and at purchase you put in the down payment and closing costs.
