The Top 100 Most Expensive U.S. Zip Codes Reach New RecordsBy RISMedia Staff
Home prices were on the upswing in even more locations this year than last, with 86% of the 100 priciest zip codes in the U.S. experiencing increases, according to a new study from PropertyShark.
PropertyShark’s annual ranking of the 100 priciest zip codes in the U.S. by closed home sales found that overall, 2022 median price changes ranged between +39% and -41%. Nationally only 27 zip codes of the 128 in the top had medians under $2 million. Additionally, Atherton’s 94027 remained as the #1 most expensive zip code in the U.S. at a jaw-dropping $7.9 million median sale price, after a 6% year-over-year increase. Key highlights:
“Once again, ranking zip codes by median sale prices—calculated from actual closed sales to reflect real market conditions, instead of listing prices that represent sellers’ goals—this year’s top 100 proved that the wealthiest zip codes for real estate have overwhelmingly become even more expensive,” said Eliza Theiss, senior writer for PropertySHark and author of the report. “Specifically, the five priciest zips in the country posted medians of $5 million or more, with a total of 14 zips surpassing the $4 million threshold. In fact, of the 128 zips on our list, only 27 had medians below $2 million—and those, too, stayed above $1.7 million.” For the full report, click here. |
