The Most Expensive Neighborhoods in the U.S.

The priciest neighborhood in New York City — and the 10th most expensive in the country — is the West Village in Manhattan.

The neighborhood — with an average price per square foot of $2,680 — is bordered by the Hudson River to the west, 14th Street to the north, Houston Street to the south, and Sixth or Seventh Avenue to the east (depending on who you ask). The West Village developed rapidly between 1825 and 1840, with its population increasing fourfold during that time. Today, it's known for its historic architecture, including the beautiful brownstones you encounter on nearly every block. The West Village is also a cultural hub, where you can find landmarks such as the Stonewall Inn, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Comedy Cellar, and the legendary Village Vanguard jazz club, among many other institutions.
