Repairs the city has ordered

    These are about the building itself — construction, elevators, boilers, facades — rather than the flat you would live in.

    DOB violations, NYC Open Data

Heat and hot water

  • No heat or hot water complaints to 311 in the last year.

    Landlords must keep heat on from 1 October to 31 May, and hot water all year. Complaints here are from tenants in this building, not from us.

    311 service requests, NYC Open Data

Pests

  • Health inspectors have not visited in the last two years.

    The health department inspects buildings on complaint and on patrol. No visit here in two years is not the same as no rats.

    Rodent inspections, NYC Open Data

Noise

  • Medium11 noise complaints to 311 in the last year, of which 4 were about neighbours rather than the street.

    311 calls from this address. A busy street or a big building will always draw some — read the number against the size of the building.

The landlord

  • The owner is not on the city’s register, and does not have to be.

    Only buildings with three or more flats have to register, so there is nothing irregular about this one not appearing.

The posting itself

  • This posting scores 100 out of 100 against known signs of a fake listing, with nothing found.

    Scored from the price against comparable flats nearby, the wording of the posting, and whether its photos and text appear on other listings. It is about the advert, not the building.

What's good here

  • 1-minute walk to the subway

    Van Cortlandt Park-242 St is about 56 m away, and the 1 line runs within a 10-minute walk.

  • Plenty of places to buy food

    20 licensed food stores within a 10-minute walk.

  • Less violent crime than most areas we've checked

    9 violent felonies reported within 500 m over the last 12 months — lower than 84% of the areas we've profiled.

Reported crime is counted within 500 m over 12 months, from NYPD complaint data, and split into violent and property offences because busy commercial blocks record far more theft than quiet residential ones. We don’t reduce a neighborhood to a single score, and no apartment is ever hidden from you based on its area. Checked a month ago.
