Moving to NYC comes with a lot of excitement — and a lot of questions. Where should I live? Will I feel safe and accepted? How do I meet new people? Can I afford to live in a space that actually feels like me?
Roomrs LGBTQ+-friendly co-living spaces offer answers to all of the above. With flexible leases, furnished homes, and inclusive environments in vibrant neighborhoods across the city, you get more than just a place to sleep — you get a place to be yourself.
At its core, co-living is about community. You share a home with other like-minded renters, each with your own private room and shared access to kitchens, bathrooms, and common spaces. But when you add in an LGBTQ+-affirming environment, it becomes so much more than convenience.
At Roomrs, we create co-living spaces where LGBTQ+ renters feel safe, supported, and celebrated — not just tolerated. No awkward roommate interviews. No uncertainty. Just a space where you can thrive.
NYC is one of the most diverse cities in the world, but that doesn’t mean every housing situation automatically feels inclusive. Co-living with Roomrs is different. Here’s why:
Moving to a new city can be isolating — especially if you’re doing it solo. Co-living helps foster friendships, community, and comfort from day one.
Our rooms are fully furnished and stocked with everything you need to feel at home. No hauling furniture. No setup stress. You bring the vibes — we’ve got the couch.
We carefully screen all residents to ensure respectful, welcoming environments. No need to worry if you’ll be “accepted” in your own home.
You’re building your career, maybe figuring out your next step, and don’t want to be locked into a year-long lease. We get it. Our flexible terms give you options.
Roomrs has properties in some of the city’s most queer-friendly neighborhoods, including:
Whether you want to be in the heart of the action or somewhere with a bit more calm, we’ve got something that fits.
Living in an LGBTQ+-friendly co-living space isn’t just about feeling safe (though that’s crucial). It’s about finding a place where you can grow — personally and professionally.
Roomrs homes give you the space to focus on your goals without distractions. Whether you’re launching a business, pursuing a new degree, or just trying to find your people, you’ll have a comfortable, affirming space to do it.
At Roomrs, we know that your home is more than just where you sleep — it’s where you build your life. Our co-living spaces offer the flexibility, affordability, and community that so many LGBTQ+ professionals are searching for when they move to NYC.
