Story

historically, rentals in NYC have been pretty wild. the median 1BR in West Village as of July 2025 cost $5,750/month. about a month ago, NYC passed a law to ban broker fees which many predicted would have increased rents. I realized I had access to some original data from a previous project so I built a dashboard to help me visualize the changes and see for myself.

you can filter by neighborhoods, bedrooms, original source where the rentals were posted, and select a timeframe.

this is still a work in progress, so apologies in advance for any issues you encounter. I would love any feedback on how to improve it and/or what other visualizations i should add. known issues include:

- some neighborhoods like Prospect Park will also automatically select other, unrelated, neighborhoods when selected

- sometimes even when you filter by 1BR it will also include some 2BR

- some units might have been listed on multiple platforms, effectively counting as duplicates
