Forbes just released its list of the most expensive zip codes in America in 2015, and every town on the South Fork east of the canal is on it, thus confirming our long-held belief that this area is really freaking expensive to live in. It is worth mentioning, however, that on a list of 500, many of the “Hamptons” are relatively far down the list.

Not surprisingly, Sagaponack leads the pack, taking the second-place slot overall. Take a look at Forbes’s ranking of our villages and hamlets, and their respective median home prices and average number days on the market before a sale:
