The Most Expensive Place To Buy a Home in Every Southern State
While the American South has, historically, had lower income levels than the rest of the United States, there are still numerous Southern cities and communities that require an income of millions to easily afford the housing there. Curious where they are? Check Out: Learn This: Recently, GOBankingRates studied information from Zillow Home Value Index to identify which towns and cities in the South had the most expensive median home values. Some are expensive primarily due to their historical mansions; others are limited by complex zoning while also being suffused with local beauty. Other cities attract the wealthy due to convenience, offering millionaires working in nearby big cities a quiet suburb to come home to at the end of the day. Check out the most expensive place to buy a home in every Southern state. Median home value: $1,020,885 Population: 22,160 As reported by LAS Real Estate, Mountain Brook has a very limited housing availability, coupled with an equally high demand (thanks to a close proximity to Birmingham's large economy and employment opportunities, as well as the area's natural beauty). Additionally, the town is notable for very severe zoning policies. That makes the development of new homes and properties rather difficult, keeping demand for housing high (and expensive). Find More: Read This: Median home value: $700,302 Population: 2,488 Goshen has been defined by a growth rate of nearly 128% since 2010, per Home Stratosphere — thanks to its relative closeness to the industrial hub Fayetteville, custom homes on large expanses of acreage and stunning mountain views from its very desirable real estate. Also See: Median home value: $9,514,524 Population: 871 Jupiter has recently attracted a number of wealthy and celebrity residents (such as Celine Dion, Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods) thanks to a mix of beautiful locales, low taxes, a gorgeous coastal view and a very close proximity to Miami and West Palm Beach. All are reasons Jupiter's property values have skyrocketed, making it a go-to spot for wealthy East Coasters. Median home value: $983,116 Population: 41,305 Milton is the wealthiest city in the Georgia, with an equally high-end housing market. The city offers the relaxed living of a suburb, while maintaining a close proximity to Atlanta. Meanwhile, most of the houses in Milton are built atop large, expansive lots that can stretch for several acres, increasing their value and cost. Median home value: $662,863 Population: 4,518 Housing in Prospect is rather expensive due in part to the town's positioning alongside the Ohio River — not only does this create incredible (and pricey) views from homes, it also attracts wealthy residents who are also boat owners who frequent the nearby Louisville's Yacht Club. Enjoy This: Median home value: $384,072 Population: 971 Like Prospect, Kentucky, Madisonville sits right alongside a large body of water — in this case, the mouth of the Tchefuncte River, which provides gorgeous scenery and views surrounding the town's rather expensive houses. Median home value: $402,748 Population: 27,775 The Chandler Group real estate company has described Madison as a powerhouse real estate market defined by a strong local economy, very limited housing availability (thanks to controlled housing development), the area's natural beauty and the high quality of life (low crime, strong schools and numerous recreational activities). All of these factors intertwine to make demand for housing in Madison far exceed the available real estate. Median home value: $2,106,896 Population: 2,679 Wrightsville Beach is exactly that — a beach — automatically making the coastal town a very expensive one due to its natural beauty and beachfront housing. Further, Wrightstville Beach is a very small geographic space, making that coastline real estate very rare and in demand, per Homes For Sale. Learn More: Median home value: $974,356 Population: 3,838 Real estate firm Wyatt Poindexter has described Nichols Hills as a 'prestigious community' defined by its 'charm, sophistication and vibrant lifestyle.' The town was designed in 1929 to be an upscale suburb created around the surrounding area's natural beauty, and is populated with a number of Colonial and Georgian mansions. There are also a number of country clubs in Nichols Hills, along with a multitude of parks, fine dining restaurants and expensive shopping options, all of which attract the wealthy of Oklahoma. Median home value: $4,087,636 Population: 2,127 Conveniently located near Charleston, Sullivans Island is inherently limited in terms of space and real estate, which automatically drives up housing prices across its three square miles of land. Further, it is yet another town defined by its beachfront properties that are both beautiful and rather expensive. Median home value: $1,420,054 Population: 45,272 Brentwood is a town suffused with beautiful landscapes, close access to Nashville (and all the business and culture that comes with it) and a number of wealthy and celebrity homeowners. That drives up housing prices in the ritzy suburb. Find Out: Median home value: $3,059,874 Population: 8,774 Why is Highland Park the most expensive community in Texas? According to WFAA Dallas, Highland Park's very close proximity (four miles) to Dallas helps, offering a place for the hyper-wealthy millionaires with offices in Dallas to retire to at the end of every day. Median home value: $1,746,064 Population: 50,232 The community of McLean is very close to Washington, D.C., making it a hotspot of suburban living for the wealthy who work in our nation's capital. The area is also marked by very historic and expensive estates, further driving up the average real estate price for the community. Median home value: $480,392 Population: 1,399 The oldest community in West Virginia, Shepherdstown features a number of historic (and thus expensive) houses and mansions. The city is close to the Potomac River, near Washington, D.C., and is a popular art scene. Editor's note: Photos are for representational purposes only and might not reflect the exact locations listed. Methodology: To find the most expensive place to buy a home in every state, GOBankingRates analyzed every state to find the cities with the most expensive median home values, as sourced from Zillow Home Value Index. For each city, the total population was sourced from the U.S. Census American Consumer Survey as supplemental data. All data was collected on and is up to date as of May 28, 2025.

Family and friends rally at courthouse in Goshen in support of murder suspect
GOSHEN — The sister of a man accused of killing a convicted pedophile right after his release from prison, led a rally near the Elkhart County Courthouse Wednesday. On June 24, Nicolas Stanley, 35, allegedly shot and killed Allen Cogswell, 35, at the Daylite Inn in Elkhart. Police were called shortly after midnight with reports of a shooting. According to police reports, a witness told investigators a man with a long gun, later identified as Stanley, looked in the window of a room and knocked on the door. When Cogswell opened the door, the armed man began shooting, the report reads. Stanley was taken into custody later that day without incident. It was soon revealed that Cogswell was a convicted sex offender who was recently released from prison after serving six and a half years of a 12-year sentence for child molestation. The victim was a relative of Stanley's. On Wednesday afternoon, Stanley's sister, Jessica Stanley, led a rally on the sidewalk adjacent to the Elkhart County Courthouse in Goshen. She was hoping to draw as many as 100 supporters, although about half that number was present 30 minutes after it began at noon. Many of those in attendance held handmade signs while others wore shirts bearing a anti-pedophilia logo and the hashtag '#freenic.' Although many drivers honked their horns in obvious support of the demonstrators, a few also hurled derogatory insults toward them as they passed by. Both types of actions were met with in-kind reactions from those gathered on the sidewalk. 'My brother is a very good dad, obviously; he cares about both of his children,' said Jessica Stanley. 'Had Allen Cogswell not been released so soon, I don't think we'd be here in this position. It's been really difficult for our family, but we stand behind Nic 100%. We just need better reform and stricter laws when it comes to sentencing of child sex abusers.' Stanley said the abuse of the child took place over an eight-month span during 2017. Cogswell was caught and arrested in January 2018 and sentenced that April. According to Stanley, Cogswell was a distant relative of the victim, which was how he gained access to the child. 'We are advocating for my brother,' Stanley said. 'We are hopeful for a minimal sentence. We're hoping for 10 years at most, but we understand that it could be upwards of 65 years. We've got hope that the prosecuting attorney and the jury will see that, due to the circumstances of the case.' She has had the opportunity to speak with her brother, who is being held without bail at the Elkhart County Jail. He has seen both of his children. She said her brother has received a lot of support from the community including Bikers Against Predators whose president attended the rally. Supporters have even made financial contributions to his commissary account. She said he knows he has received numerous messages of encouragement, as well. 'Right now he's remaining hopeful,' she said. 'He's pretty cheerful despite the circumstances. He's remaining positive that this will get down to the lowest possible sentencing time. My brother needs to be here with his children instead of being in jail.'

Iranian Missile Fired after US Strikes Causes Heavy Damage but Few Injuries in Tel Aviv
TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Hours after the U.S. struck three Iranian nuclear sites, Iran launched more than 40 missiles toward Israel on Sunday, wounding 23 people and destroying apartment buildings and homes in three cities. At an impact site in Tel Aviv, the blast had sheared off the face of a multistory residential building and damaged several others — including a nursing home — in a radius of hundreds of meters (yards). But few people were wounded, as many residents had been evacuated and others made it to bomb shelters. Deputy Mayor Haim Goren, who assisted at the scene, said it was nevertheless 'miraculous' that more people were not hurt. Relatives and health aides helped residents — many with wheelchairs or walkers — to leave the nursing home, where windows were blown out up to the top on the 11th floor. 'It's like a typhoon came through my apartment,' said Ofer Berger, who lives near the impact site on the seventh floor of a high-rise. 'All of the apartments in this area are destroyed,' he said. Emergency services said one person was moderately wounded by shrapnel in Sunday's missile barrage while dozens of others were lightly injured. Berger said he hoped the war with Iran would end soon. 'Most of the tit-for-tat strikes like this end with a lot of tears,' he said. Residents sat with their pets and suitcases outside the damaged buildings. One person sat next to a shopping cart filled with Buddha statues and a child's bicycle. Families gathered what they could and stepped gingerly around piles of glass and twisted metal. Dozens of volunteers from an organization called 'One Heart' showed up to help residents salvage their belongings. Strikes have displaced more than 9,000 people from their homes since the start of the war, according to the Israeli military. Missiles have damaged 240 residential buildings, including more than 2,000 individual apartments. Mira Goshen, 79, said her entire apartment was destroyed. 'My mamad was shaking like a leaf, and I thought it was the end of the world,' Goshen said, referring to the reinforced safe rooms that are required in all new construction. She said the shelter had saved her life. In some areas where entire homes were flattened, the reinforced rooms stood intact. Goshen's pet bird, Chica, survived an 11-story drop when her cage was knocked off the balcony by the explosion. A rescuer retrieved her, and she was trembling and burrowing into Goshen's neck hours later as Goshen spoke with neighbors and authorities outside her building. Hours later, municipality workers worked to sweep up the the shattered glass and remove debris, while others handed out sandwiches and water at an aid station. Several businesses on a nearby street had their windows blown out, and the stores were littered with broken glass amid baked goods, children's clothes and books. Workers at a supermarket stacked crates of fruit in front of a shattered front window and opened for shoppers, who packed the aisles. Residents appeared calm in the aftermath of Sunday's strike, but Goren said the nightly barrages, the frantic running to shelters and the close confines inside them are taking a toll. 'There's a lot of stress and pressure building, lots of nerves,' the deputy mayor said. Mutual aid groups are working around the clock to match families in need with shelters and support, and the municipality is working to convert parking garages, bus stations and train stations to temporary shelters. Goshen said she was more focused on where she would go next than on the U.S. strikes on Iran and their aftermath. 'I'm far away from politics, and what I think, it doesn't matter actually, because they don't listen to ordinary people,' she said.
