A Lake Tahoe Community Has the Country’s Priciest Mountain Homes

Straddling the border between northern California and western Nevada in the Sierra Nevada range is Lake Tahoe, about two-thirds in California and one-third in Nevada. The property tax friendly Nevada side encompasses a roughly 30 mile stretch, which is home to a number of small communities. This includes the Glenbrook area, whose 89413 ZIP Code has the most expensive U.S. mountain real estate as ranked by median listing price, according to Realtor.com. (News Corp, owner of The Wall Street Journal, also operates Realtor.com.) Encompassing the larger and separate Glenbrook gated subdivision and a half-dozen other smaller neighborhoods, the 89413 ZIP Code is elite, coveted and private.
