Fisher Island: America’s Most Expensive ZIP Code
When it comes to exclusivity, prestige, and record-setting real estate values, Fisher Island in Miami Beach now stands at the very top. According to Realtor.com, this ultra-private enclave has officially claimed the title of the most expensive ZIP code in the United States, with a median listing price of $11.9 million.
That figure places Fisher Island more than $2.8 million ahead of runner-up Newport Coast in California, underscoring Miami’s remarkable rise as a magnet for ultra-high-net-worth buyers.
An Island Like No Other
Unlike other South Florida neighbourhoods, Fisher Island is entirely surrounded by water and accessible only by boat or private ferry. This separation adds to its aura of privacy and security, offering residents a rare retreat just minutes from the vibrant energy of Miami Beach.
Its rarefied status has long drawn A-list homeowners, with names such as Oprah Winfrey, Julia Roberts, Karolína Kurková, Caroline Wozniacki, and Robert Herjavec all connected to the island’s residences. For the global elite, Fisher Island is less a neighbourhood and more a statement of lifestyle.
