Though it’s not surprising to see places like Beverly Hills on the list, it is a little startling to see some relatively unknown spots like Water Mill, New York make the ranking of the most expensive places to buy a home in America. Though the study only looked at median home prices, the cost of living in these communities in terms of utilities, grocery bills, and childcare likely parallels the inflated price tags on property.
In summary, families looking to cut costs might want to avoid putting down roots in coastal California or the Hamptons.
