California is now home to seven of the most expensive ZIP codes in the United States, according to a new report.
Real estate data firm PropertyShark conducted a study of the US real estate market with the aim of determining which zip codes are the most expensive in the country this year. To be specific, the team examined year-to-date closed residential sales, which means the prices reflect expectations from sellers.
The 10 most expensive zip codes had homes with median sale prices of at least $4 million. Of those zip codes, seven are located in California, the report noted.
