With average Manhattan monthly rents recently climbing past $5,000, now's definitely a good time to explore the city's affordable housing lottery program—especially if you're hoping to live uptown.
A search through NYC Housing Connect, the city's online portal for finding affordable housing, currently shows two rental lotteries in Central Harlem (although as Patch recently pointed out, the word "affordable" is up for debate).
