  • 5 years ago
The Hamptons, a series of beach towns along eastern Long Island off the East Coast of the United States, is well-known as a summer retreat for the wealthy and famous of New York. 

Within these affluent communities, a tiny village of 491 people stands out as the priciest zip code, and by some calculations, the most expensive in the entire country. 

Sagaponack, a village in the town of Southampton in the 11962 zip code, has been called home by CEOs, musicians, authors and celebrities. 

In Sagaponack, a typical home is listed for US$7.1 million, according to a study by GoBankingRates. In order to live comfortably in the Hamptons village, you will need to make at least US$853,738 a year according to the analysis.
