How We Ranked These Apartments
1
Ranked by quality
quality score, high to low. That’s the whole ranking. Verified reviews rate it 1–5, and recent reviews count more than older ones. Ties go to the property with more reviews.
2
Who Makes the List
Every property near CUNY Lehman College can appear, but it takes a minimum number of verified reviews to rank by score. Under-sampled properties sit below every qualified one, ordered by review count, and move up automatically as reviews come in.
3
The FMP Score
The composite score in the full table: quality plus management and quality from verified reviews only. Useful context, but it doesn’t affect the order. Rankings are independent: there’s no way to pay for placement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the top quality student apartment near CUNY Lehman College?
Amsterdam Residences leads our August 2026 ranking of the 9 Top Quality student apartments near CUNY Lehman College with a 5.0/5 quality score, followed by Columbus Square and Avalon Morningside Park.
How is this ranking calculated?
This list is ranked by one number: each property's quality score from verified reviews. Students rate a property's quality 1 to 5, and we average those scores, counting recent reviews more heavily than older ones. No self-reported data from landlords.
What makes an apartment high quality?
In reviews, the highest quality scores come from well-kept units, a building that’s clearly maintained, and amenities that actually work as promised.
How often is this ranking updated?
Monthly. We re-pull verified reviews and re-score every property at the start of each month, so the order reflects the most recent 24 months of student feedback. The “updated” date at the top of the page shows the latest refresh.
How many reviews does a property need to be included?
There's a minimum number of verified reviews to rank by score, and we don't publish the exact bar so it can't be gamed. Properties under it still appear, below every qualified property and ordered by review count, so a 5.0 from one review never outranks a 4.5 from thirty. Once a property collects enough reviews, it moves into the scored ranking automatically.
Is this ranking independent, or can properties pay to rank higher?
It's fully independent. There's no pay-to-rank. Position is set by verified reviews alone. Property managers can't buy placement, remove reviews, or influence the score.
