NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is a silver-spoon socialist shamelessly living in a dirt cheap rent-stabilized apartment  – and it’s time to move out, fed up neighbors and critics told The Post.

Mamdani, 33, who rakes in $142,000 a year as a state assemblyman and whose wealthy family includes his filmmaker mom and professor dad, has been living in a $2,300-a-month, one-bedroom pad in Astoria — galling facts that reached critical mass Saturday.

“It’s unfortunate that he supports policies that are great for the fortunate few [who] get these apartments,” said Jerry DeFazio, 33, a mechanical engineer who lived in the same building as Mamdani. 

“It makes it harder for everyone to afford … since landlords raise the other rents, like mine, to pay for his.”

Mayor Eric Adams accused Mamdani of “exploiting a system designed to serve the most vulnerable.”

“This is not public service; this is self-service,” he told The Post.

“It is outrageous that … a man who presents himself as a champion of the poor would occupy an apartment intended for public housing while thousands of New Yorkers sleep in shelters or on the streets. I was born in Brownsville and understand firsthand what it means to fight for a roof over your head.”

Jim Walden, a lawyer running as an independent for mayor, said it’s “obscene for wealthy people like Mamdani to get rent-stabilized apartments [and] for elected officials to benefit from programs they vote on.”

“Good government can’t be based on bad policy and conflicts of interest,’ he added.

The Uganda-born Mamdani comes from a wealthy family, and his six figure salary is on top of the additional income his illustrator wife, Rama Duwaji, brings to home he’s lived for at least four years.  

He’s been open on the campaign trail about his cushy living situation, telling moderators during a Democratic primary debate two months ago about his shockingly affordable rent.

Former governor and mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo unleashed a tirade on X Friday alongside a video of Mamdani admitting he pays cheap rent.

“Somewhere last night in New York City, a single mother and her children slept at a homeless shelter because you, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, are occupying her rent controlled apartment,” Cuomo wrote in the viral tweet that has racked up more than 28 million views.

“You grew up rich and married an even wealthier woman. You’ve had weddings on 3 continents. You own property in LGTBQIA+ murderous Uganda,” he continued.

Mamdani, 33, and Duwaji, 27, eloped in February at the City Clerk’s office but jetted last month off for a small, but lavish Dubai engagement and wedding celebration.

They capped off their nuptials with a blockbuster, three-day affair at his family’s ritzy, secluded Ugandan compound, complete with masked security guards and a cell phone jamming system – which Cuomo was quick to point out.

“Today, I am calling on you to move out immediately and give your affordable housing back to an unhoused family who need[s] it. Leaders must show moral clarity. Time to move out,” added Cuomo.

Republican mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa told The Post: “only in New York do we have two nepo babies, Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani, arguing over an apartment while the city falls apart because of both of them.”

“Mamdani talks a big game about being for the people but plays by a different set of rules, and New Yorkers are sick of the hypocrisy,” he said.

Mamdani had previously claimed he intended to leave his cheap digs. He told the New York Editorial Board in February he found the listing on StreetEasy years ago when he was making $47,000 per year as a foreclosure prevention housing counselor

He claimed that at the time, he had no idea it was a rent-stabilized unit.

The average price of rent for a one-bedroom in the trendy Queens nabe is closer to $3,000, according to Apartment Advisor — meaning Mamdani saves an average of $8,400 per year more than his constituents.

Despite hailing from renowned, wealthy parents who sent him to the elite $66,000-a-year Bank Street School, Mamdani has recently claimed to have less than $2,000 in the bank.

His parents have plenty of cash of their own, however.

His Academy Award- and Golden Globe-nominated filmmaker mother, Mira Nair, recently sold a posh West Chelsea 2-bedroom that she had owned for more than 10 years in 2019 for $1.45 million.

His father, Mahmood Mamdani, is a chaired Columbia University professor, a position which on average reaps a salary of $308,000 a year.

The Harvard-educated couple still live in the stylish Ivy League and taxpayer-subsidized 3-bed, 3-bath corner apartment on Riverside Drive — with weekly maid service.

Mamdani also owns four acres of land in Uganda worth between $150,000 and $250,000.

When he moved in, Mamdani claimed he had not realized he had nabbed a rent-stabilized unit.

The average price of rent for a one-bedroom in the trendy Queens nabe is closer to $3,000, according to Apartment Advisor — meaning Mamdani saves an average of $8,400 per year more than his constituents.

“In that time since, I’ve become an assemblymember and I’m now able to pay for that apartment and able to also move out of that apartment and I plan on doing so. I don’t plan on living in that apartment for perpetuity,” he said.

Mamdani’s camp brushed off any criticism, claiming Cuomo is merely trying to distract voters. 

“Andrew Cuomo isn’t just working with Donald Trump — he’s becoming him. Ranting to reporters, firing off unhinged social media posts, lodging personal attacks — all to avoid talking about the corruption, sexual harassment, and abuse of power that drove him from office. The only thing missing is a red hat,” spokesperson Dora Pekec said in a statement.

 Critics responded to Mamdani’s post, with one pointing out the socialist celebrated his wedding in a “guarded private fortress.”

“Guy who grew up supremely comfy says what?” wrote another person on X in response to Mamdani’s post. “How much was your wedding again? The wedding with guards? The cell phone jammers? Your mother alone is worth $22M. Hypocrite.

“The truth hurts and the truth is Mamdani is gaming a system meant to help those with way less privilege,” Cuomo spokesman Richard Azzopardi told The Post.

“I understand his diehard supporters don’t know how to deal with his mask slipping,” he added, referencing backlash from Mamdani backers, “but the comments I see are full of New Yorkers who are appalled by his hypocrisy.”
