Neighborhood: Lincoln Square
Best feature: Situated right on West 72nd Street in the heart of the Upper West Side, this apartment is near Central Park, and a quick walk from both Lincoln Center and – most importantly – Zabar’s. The large windows provide plenty of light, and add cheer to the living area and the small kitchen. The custom Murphy bed helps save space.
Why it’s a deal: The median asking rent for a studio in Lincoln Square is $2,750. At $2,000, this apartment is a good deal in a great neighborhood.

Biggest drawback: That Murphy bed is not everyone’s ideal sleeping situation, and it does reveal the relatively small dimensions of the place. Still, the unit comes with other features, like a walk-in closet and building amenities that include a live-in super, elevator and bike room. And, of course, you can’t discount the Upper West Side convenience and glamour — all for a price below the neighborhood median.
