For all of the complaining those of us living in the DC Metropolitan area do about housing prices none of our zip codes made the Forbes Magazine Top 25 Most Expensive Zip Code Slideshow.
The closest zip code to make it into the top 25 is good old 21056 Gibson Island, MD with a median house price of just over $1.6 million.
Forbes Magazine also compiled a list of the top 150 most expensive zip codes
Luckily, or unluckily depending on your point of view, there is an local entry in the top 150 list, Zip Code 22066 Great Falls, VA with a median home price of $922,500 made it into the top 150 list at #86. Strangely this is the only local zip code that makes the list. I was sure that a North Arlington Zip code like 22207 would make the list, or maybe Georgetown in the district.
The only other entry on the top 150 that is near the DC Metro is entry #26 with a median home price of $1.3 million Zip Code 21153 Stevenson, MD, which is just north of Baltimore.
