Massachusetts has six of the Top 100 US zips, led by Boston's Back Bay neighborhood zip code 02199 ($2,800,000 median sales price).

The top-ranked zip in Connecticut, and 60th nationally, is the Riverside section of the town of Greenwich (zip code 06878) with a median price of $2,225,000).

The rankings were determined by median sale prices based on closed home sales, not asking prices "as we consider this methodology to provide the most accurate picture of actual market dynamics," according to Property Shark.
