<p>According to <a href="http://www.eppraisal.com/">eppraisal.com</a> the most expensive zip codes in the country are:</p>
<p style="text-align: center; padding-top: 5px; width: 300px"><script src="http://api.eppraisal.com/Widgets/MostExpensiveZipCodesWidget.js?CSZ=N" type="text/javascript"></script><br />
<a href="http://www.eppraisal.com/">real estate home values and trends &#8211; eppraisal.com</a></p>
<p>Ever wonder what type of people live in these areas? I guess you would know if you were one of them, but in the slim chance that you&#8217;re not, let me share some interesting data featured on eppraisal.com to give you a little more insight. Every neighborhood has a personality or a group of prominent lifestyles. Using segmentation research from Claritas Inc., eppraisal.com grouped the neighborhoods within these top zip codes into the following lifestyles:</p>
<p><strong> <span>Upper Crust</span></strong></p>
<p>The nation’s most exclusive address, Upper Crust is the wealthiest lifestyle in America—a haven for empty-nesting couples over 55 years old. No segment has a higher concentration of residents earning over $200,000 a year or possessing a postgraduate degree. And none has a more opulent standard of living.</p>
<p><strong> <span>Second City Elite</span></strong></p>
<p>There’s money to be found in the nation’s smaller cities, and you’re most likely to find it in Second City Elite. The residents of these satellite cities tend to be prosperous executives who decorate their $200,000 homes with multiple computers, large-screen TV sets and an impressive collection of wines. With more than half holding college degrees, Second City Elite residents enjoy cultural activities—from reading books to attending theater and dance productions</p>
<p><strong> <span>Middleburg Managers</span></strong></p>
<p>Middleburg Managers arose when empty-nesters settled in satellite communities which offered a lower cost of living and more relaxed pace. Today, segment residents tend to be middle-class and over 55 years old, with solid managerial jobs and comfortable retirements. In their older homes, they enjoy reading, playing musical instruments, indoor gardening and refinishing furniture.</p>
<p><strong> <span>New Empty Nests</span></strong></p>
<p>With their grown-up children recently out of the house, New Empty Nests is composed of upscale older Americans who pursue active—and activist—lifestyles. Nearly three-quarters of residents are over 65 years old, but they show no interest in a rest-home retirement. This is the top-ranked segment for all-inclusive travel packages; the favorite destination is Italy</p>
<p><strong><span>Movers &amp; Shakers</span></strong></p>
<p>Movers &amp; Shakers is home to America’s up-and-coming business class: a wealthy suburban world of dual-income couples who are highly educated, typically between the ages of 35 and 54, often with children. Given its high percentage of executives and white-collar professionals, there’s a decided business bent to this segment: Movers &amp; Shakers rank number-one for owning a small business and having a home office.</p>
