If you want to house hunt like the ultrawealthy, we have the places to start your search.
Using Realtor.com® listing data, we’ve compiled the 10 most expensive ZIP codes in the country for homebuyers, along with the single priciest listing in each.
The results lack geographic diversity, to put it mildly. All 10 locations are in either California or the Hamptons on New York’s Long Island.
Still, the battle for listing price supremacy between Northern and Southern California presents some drama. In NorCal’s Silicon Valley, the ZIP code for Atherton has regularly topped lists of the most expensive—but it achieved only second place in our rankings.
Instead, a ZIP code in Newport Coast, CA, was rated as the most expensive, with a median list price of $11,678,350. A wealthy enclave within Orange County’s Newport Beach, the area is home to celebrities, including Vanessa Bryant, widow of NBA legend Kobe Bryant.
Other notables in Newport Coast include Chicago Bulls All-Star Zach LaVine and Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon.
