WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN — The impending shutdown of the L train station doesn't appear to be affecting rents. The Bedford Avenue station is still among the most expensive to live near to, according to a new map from RentHop.

The real estate search engine released an interactive Subway map this week that shows the median price for a one-bedroom close to every stop in New York City.

RentHop created the map by combining rental data from the first quarter of 2017 with geographic data compiled by Baruch College, the company said in a statement.

The median price was calculated by pooling the rents of non-duplicated listing within 660 feet of stops.

RentHop also discovered that two stops on the J train saw big jumps in rent this year — prices near the Halsey Street station jumped about 25 percent to $2,245 and rents near the Chauncey Street station jumped 20 percent to $2,298.

Prices rose in many of the outer boroughs but dropped in Manhattan, according to RentHop data. The company suggested this shows New Yorkers are migrating away from the city’s center in search of bigger apartments that cost less.

In Queens, the highest prices were along the N and W lines running through Astoria. One-bedroom apartments around the Astoria Boulevard stop showed a median asking price of $2,500. The Astoria-Ditmars Boulevard stop had a median price of $1,875.

And housing prices near the F line in Jamaica showed a substantial spike. Median prices near Sutphin Boulevard were at $1,825.
