To determine the most expensive zip codes in the U.S., Property Shark looked at residential transactions closed between Jan. 1, 2024, and Sept. 30, 2024, including condos; co-ops; and single- and two-family homes. Median sale prices were rounded to the nearest $1,000.  

Only zip codes that registered a minimum of five residential transactions were considered. Due to a number of ties, 121 zip codes made the list of the 100 most expensive in 2024.
