What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe New York Post reports that America's most expensive zip code is in California, where homes cost over ten million dollars.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSo the zip code is the luxury item here, while the house is basically just the free tote bag they throw in.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTen million dollars is about two thousand years of a car payment, and that's if the car is nice.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentTwo thousand years. Meanwhile my landlord raised my rent for the garage I'm not allowed to park in.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYou don't have a garage.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThat's the point, Hank, it's a very exclusive garage.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe paper says the neighborhood made ultra-wealthy history, which means somebody got a plaque for a mortgage.
