Right, and even the top zipcodes in NYC have a ton of housing that is far from luxurious. If you look at the top for NYC proper, 10013 includes significant parts of the old housing stock of Chinatown and Little Italy that are often heavily subdivided--split that out to just west of Broadway and you'd likely top the #2 prudential center area in Back Bay, Boston and still with a lot more people and land area covered. Comparing these to the small Bay Area suburb of Atherton is going to be pretty awkward since Atherton has a much smaller population, whose housing stock is almost exclusively fairly large SFHs, and where the median income is a quarter million and likely actual earnings is far higher since at the higher levels for VCs and tech workers, income is usually a minority of one's total compensation package with income being a rounding error in comparison.
Exactly!
Atherton, CA is almost exclusively an high income area with home prices to match.
Boston City, MA makes the cut this year, but they got rid of rent regulations years ago. That has caused natural RE market forces to behave as they should.
Only place in NYC area to make cut was Sagaponack, out on LI.

I'll note that the #2 place going to Boston is also an oddity--even though it's quite small, Boston still has a lot of area that would come nowhere close to making the list. The reason why that one Boston zipcode makes the list is because it's really, really tiny with a population barely breaking into a thousand, a land area of about 0.1 square mile, and the entirety of its residences being a handful of new mid-rise luxury residences within a mostly commercial high end shopping mall and hotel complex.
That youtuber is right. There is a lot of trash in Greenwich Village but, the majority of it is not on the ground, rather, walking around.
