112 1 Bedroom Apartments for Rent

Plainview, New York, is a hamlet, but no, it has nothing to do with the famous play. Its hamlet designation just means it's part of an unincorporated town that has an official name but lacks its own government (and true identity). Plainview has a population of over 26,000, not including pets, and consists of only about 5 square miles. The area features many parks, a radio station, and a public television station, but shares fire departments with Old Bethpage, which is another New York Hamlet. The area isn't quite big city enough to have its own police force, so the Nassau County Police Department keeps the peace. See more

Looking for 1 bedroom apartments in Plainview offers a variety of choices and price points. 1 bedroom apartments allow more privacy than living with a roommate, and gives you more flexibility to find the perfect space for yourself or with a significant other.

There are a few things to consider when touring 1 bedroom apartments, including the square footage and layout. In some cities, small 1 bedroom apartments may cost nearly the same as a studio apartment. Decide whether cost, amenities, or location are the most important to help guide your apartment search.

If cost is a factor while searching for 1 bedroom apartments in Plainview, consider which floor you will live on. The bottom floor is often cheaper than top floor units, or there may be a unit with undesirable views or with an outdated kitchen that rents for less.

Remember to come prepared during your apartment hunt with pay stubs, a letter of employment or recommendation, identification, and a checkbook to act quickly. The best 1 bedroom apartments require fast action, so come ready to sign.
