Rodeo Drive ranks 5th with a $3,984 price per square foot and the highest average home price at $124.3 million. Beverly Hills properties on this iconic street feature the largest average size (31,210 sq ft) among all ranked streets, reflecting Hollywood’s preference for expansive estates while still commanding prices 171 times California’s median home value.

Located in Atherton, California’s tech-wealth enclave, these homes average 10,688 square feet—41% larger than Newbury Street properties—while commanding prices 39 times California’s median home value, reflecting Silicon Valley’s influence on the luxury real estate market.
A spokesperson from CasinooftheKings commented on the study: “America’s luxury real estate represents a separate economic universe entirely detached from conventional housing markets. The 279-fold price differential between these elite streets and their state medians highlights how tax policy, global wealth flows, and hyperlocal exclusivity—not just property features—drive these valuations. Florida’s dominance signals a fundamental shift in where America’s ultra-wealthy choose to concentrate, creating invisible economic boundaries within communities that reshape everything from local infrastructure priorities to municipal tax strategies.”
