Back Bay One of the Most Expensive Zip Codes in the Country
New England Home to 11 of the Priciest U.S. Zip Codes, Including #2 with Boston’s Back Bay
Further north, New England originated 11 of the most expensive zip codes in the country — the highest figure yet for the region — with Massachusetts contributing seven zips and Connecticut adding four. What’s more, New England also provided the #2 most expensive zip code in the U.S. with Boston’s Back Bay ultra-pricey 02199.
Zip 02199, which covers the Prudential Center area of Back Bay, usually ranks among the country’s most expensive areas but was conspicuously absent in 2020 due to depressed sales activity. However, in 2021, zip 02199 returned not only to its highest position yet at #2 nationally but also reached a new pricing record with a $5.5 million median sale price.
Meanwhile, Nantucket’s 02554 was Massachusetts’ next most expensive zip code, with its $2 million median sale price placing it #58 nationally and marking a new median peak for the exclusive island. It was followed by Weston’s 02493 at $1.85 million,as well as Wellesley Hills’ 02481, Waban’s 02468, and Chilmark’s 02535. Boston also ranked second time with Beacon Hill and Downtown Boston’s zip 02108, which was the 91st most expensive in the U.S. at $1,673,000.
