As it turns out, in some markets, a $240 million budget would buy thousands of homes while, in others, it wouldn\u2019t get you far at all<strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, San Francisco has long been famous for its unaffordable housing market. Even so, <strong>the most expensive home ever sold in NYC would buy only 200 homes in San Francisco<\/strong>.Meanwhile,50 miles south, fellow Silicon Valley powerhouse San Jose, Calif., gave San Francisco a run for its money: Here, $240 million would buy only 243 homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, in 12 of the country\u2019s 50 most populated cities, you could afford fewer than 400 homes. And, as yet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/most-expensive-zip-codes-in-the-us\/#Silicon_Valley_and_Southern_California_Claim_Counties_with_Highest_Concentrations_of_Pricey_Zips\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">another reminder of California\u2019s unaffordable price trends,<\/a> the Golden State was home to five of them: \u00a0you could buy just 310 homes in Oakland; 339 in LA; 361 in San Diego; and 390 in Long Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another major West Coast major tech center, Seattle, also stood out sharply: Here, you could buy 312 homes\u2014 just two more than in Oakland and the fourth-lowest number among the top 50 cities in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back down south, Arlington, Texas, had the fifth-lowest number of homes you could buy, despite a fairly low population compared to, say, San Francisco or NYC. In fact, <strong>$240 million could<\/strong> <strong>buy just 317 average homes in Arlington <\/strong><strong>\u2014 49 fewer than in NYC.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"581\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/05\/How-Many-Homes-Can-You-Buy-Top10.png?w=750\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/05\/How-Many-Homes-Can-You-Buy-Top10.png 750w, https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/05\/How-Many-Homes-Can-You-Buy-Top10.png?resize=300,232 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At the other end of the spectrum stood <strong>five of the Midwest\u2019s largest cities, as well as five from the South, where $240 million could buy more than 4,000 homes <\/strong>(Detroit) or at least 1,375 homes (Columbus, Ohio). At the same time, Oklahoma City would stretch that budget to 1,420 homes, while a 90-minute drive would take you to the 1,538 homes you could afford in Tulsa, Okla. Then, another 180 miles to the north would take you to Wichita, Kan., and the 1,651 homes you could afford there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Returning to Texas, you could also trade the most expensive condo ever sold in NYC for 1,430 homes in San Antonio and 1,743 in El Paso. Meanwhile, Indiana would fall almost midway between the two with 1,535 homes in Indianapolis. Further north and on the shores of Lake Michigan, $240 million would buy 1,769 average homes in Milwaukee \u2014 the third-highest number among the country\u2019s 50 most populous cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, <strong>Memphis, Tenn., and Detroit were the only two cities where the priciest NYC home ever sold could be traded for more than 2,000 homes<\/strong>. Specifically, you could buy 2,110 homes in Memphis and a whopping 4,158 in Detroit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trade NYC\u2019s Priciest Pad for 1,195 Homes in Pittsburgh & Just 393 in Boston<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking further at the country\u2019s 50 most populated cities, $240 million would buy 1,043 homes in Dallas and 1,368 in Baltimore and Kansas City, Mo. The same amount would be enough for closing on 794 in Las Vegas and 930 in Charlotte, N.C., as well as 740 in Colorado Springs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In Boston, $240 million would be enough to buy only 393 homes<\/strong> \u2014 the 11<sup>th<\/sup> lowest amount \u2014 \u00a0followed by Portland, Ore. with 518 homes. and, Denver with 522 homes. Colorado Spring\u2019s somewhat more affordable housing market meant that the price of the most expensive NYC home would be enough for 740 residences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Hover over and compare the marked areas to see how many homes you can buy in the country\u2019s 50 largest cities with the price of NYC\u2019s most expensive condo:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe title=\"Hover over and compare the marked areas to see how many homes you can buy in the country\u2019s 50 largest cities with the price of NYC's most expensive condo\" aria-label=\"Map\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-e4eEM\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/e4eEM\/7\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"610\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the Southwest\u2019s largest cities, $240 million would buy the largest number of homes in the region in Tucson, Ariz.: 1,349. With migration trends favoring the Southwest over the past years some cities have seen price surge. For example, in Mesa, Ariz., you could buy \u00a0for 890 homes and in Phoenix 864 \u2014 nearly a third fewer than in Tucson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Albuquerque, N.M., the same budget would cover 1,118 homes, while across the country <strong>in Florida, you could choose to buy 650 in Miami or nearly twice as many (1,179) in Jacksonville<\/strong>.

However, you\u2019d be able to afford even fewer homes in two similarly affluent California communities: In San Mateo, you could pick up only 186 homes and a mere 156 in Sunnyvale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only that, but <strong>California was also home to 10 of the 11 cities where $240 million would buy the lowest number of homes. <\/strong>These included Berkeley (215), Fremont (224), Daly (265), as well as Irvine and Carlsbad (266 each).The Golden State was joined by Washington\u2019s Bellevue with just 252 average homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"615\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/05\/How-Many-Homes-Can-You-Buy-Top10-by-population.png?w=750\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/05\/How-Many-Homes-Can-You-Buy-Top10-by-population.png 750w, https:\/\/www.propertyshark.com\/Real-Estate-Reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/05\/How-Many-Homes-Can-You-Buy-Top10-by-population.png?resize=300,246 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, you could buy 3,273 homes in Dayton, Ohio, the city with the second-highest number of homes) that could be picked up for the price of NYC\u2019s most expensive home.

It was joined by Cleveland (3,212); Akron (2,754); and Toledo (2,745).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As further testament to the more budget-friendly home price trends of the region, <strong>the Midwest claimed seven of the top 10 cities for the highest numbers of homes you could buy<\/strong> with more than 2,500 homes each. For example, in Indiana\u2019s South Bend, that would be enough for 2,512 homes, whereas in Lansing, Mich., you could grab 2,515. That said, the Midwest\u2019s chokehold on the country\u2019s most affordable areas was broken by Brownsville, Texas, with 2,507 homes; Rochester, N.Y., with 2,577; and Jackson, Miss., with 2,582 homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Recent_Pricing_Surges_Make_Puerto_Ricos_Leading_Cities_Less_Affordable_Than_Larger_Locations_in_the_Continental_US\"><\/span>Recent Pricing Surges Make Puerto Rico\u2019s Leading Cities Less Affordable Than Larger Locations in the Continental U.S.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Puerto Rico\u2019s rising popularity among investors and homebuyers from the continental U.S. has driven prices up to rival and even surpass many larger cities on the mainland.
