11 Most Expensive Cities to Buy a Home in the US

2. Sagaponack, NY, 11962

Median property asking price: $6,924,808

With Jimmy Fallon, Truman Capote, Billy Joel, and Bill and Hillary Clinton as neighbors, one would surely have to splash the cash in order to move into idyllic Sagaponack, located at the far tip of the Hamptons between Bridgehampton and Water Mill (16th and 17th by our calculations) and East Hampton (home to Jerry Seinfeld and Ron Perlman). It’s no wonder then, that property in Sagaponack asks just shy of $7 million on average. What’s more, property prices have been rising recently and Sagaponack rates number one by average closing price. With this in mind, it comes as no surprise that Long Island’s idyllic Hamptons village can be so expensive to move to. After all, a village with a population under 400 will soon run out of available lots.
