Finally, Bay Area neighbor <strong>San Mateo County contained the #3 highest concentration of pricey zips<\/strong>.

However, that number dropped to five in 2022, as 94121 and 94122 fell off the top, despite gains that raised their medians to around $1.75 million.

Including parts of TriBeCa, SoHo, Little Italy and Hudson Square, the exclusive zip\u2019s median climbed 18% Y-o-Y to reach $3,795,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, neighboring 10007 \u2014 which covers Downtown Manhattan, TriBeCa and SoHo \u2014 slid 12 positions after its median sale price contracted to $2,775,000. In fact, even Battery Park City\u2019s 10282 outpaced it with its $3.13 million median. And, despite a 10% increase, the Greenwich Village, SoHo and Nolita zip of 10012 dropped further in the rankings It landed at #71 with a median of $2,125,000 \u2014 a far cry from its highest position at #26 in 2018, which it secured with $2,378,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"556\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-NYC-visual.png?w=864\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41873\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-NYC-visual.png 864w, https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-NYC-visual.png?resize=300,193 300w, https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-NYC-visual.png?resize=768,494 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Upper West Side\u2019s 10069 also recovered some of its 2021 losses, <\/strong>appreciating 23% to return to a price point north of $2 million.

Deal previously ranked in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, Avalon\u2019s 08202 returned for the second time after last year\u2019s debut. This time, it ranked 10 spots higher after a 20% increase that lifted its median to $2 million. Finally, New Jersey\u2019s fourth contribution was 07078 in Short Hills at $1,825,000. This one had previously appeared for three consecutive years between 2016 and 2019 but was later locked out of rankings by zips with faster paces of price increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Miami_Beach_Reaches_New_Pricing_Record_with_Fisher_Island\"><\/span>Miami Beach Reaches New Pricing Record with Fisher Island<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Way down south on the East Coast, Florida was again represented by 33109 in the Miami Beach community of Fisher Island.

For example, <strong>Boston<\/strong><strong>\u2019s position noticeably weakened<\/strong>: The city placed only one zip, and its flagship pricey zip code in Back Bay, 02199, fell from last year\u2019s record #2 spot and all-time high median of $5.5 million. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This came after <strong>a 41% price cut slashed Back Bay\u2019s median to $3,245,000<\/strong>, the result of lower-priced transactions. Even so, this remained the most exclusive zip code in New England. Conversely, the other five Massachusetts zips at the top of our list all experienced double-digit price hikes. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Nantucket\u2019s 02554 was Massachusetts\u2019 next most expensive zip code, with its $2,538,000 median marking a new pricing peak for the exclusive island. The next-richest zip code was Chilmark\u2019s 02535. It surged from #93 last year to land at #58 in 2022, thanks to a 38% Y-o-Y price jump. In fact, that was the second-sharpest price appreciation in this year\u2019s national rankings, and it lifted the median of this Martha\u2019s Vineyard community to $2.3 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other Massachusetts entries were all from communities that have been listed sporadically throughout the years, including Weston\u2019s 02493; 02481 in Wellesley Hills; and 02468 in Waban, all of which landed above the $2 million mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"556\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-New-England-visual.png?w=864\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41872\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-New-England-visual.png 864w, https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-New-England-visual.png?resize=300,193 300w, https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2022\/11\/V3MEZC2022-New-England-visual.png?resize=768,494 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Hampshire_Returns_with_Record_Rye_Beach_Median_as_Connecticut_Loses_Ground\"><\/span>New Hampshire Returns with Record Rye Beach Median as Connecticut Loses Ground<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>New Hampshire returned to the top 100 this year with its most exclusive zip code \u2014 03871 in Rye Beach.
