8 New Jersey Towns Make America’s Most Expensive Places To Live List
There are a lot of lists that Jersey is on that are really cool.
For example, when lists name the best places to go on vacation over the summer and name a few Jersey Shore towns, that's really cool and can make you swell up with a little State Pride.
Or, for example, when a few Jersey restaurants are named among the best in the country, again that's a cool list to have your state on.
A list that's not so great to be on though, and sadly Jersey is all over it, is a list of the most expensive places in the country to live.
It's no secret that Jersey's expensive, but we have 8 towns that are among the top 150 most expensive places in the country to call home.
Each one of these towns has an average home price that's well over seven figures so unless you hit that Mega Millions jackpot, you'll need a couple of roommates to buy one of these places!
