Brooklyn’s Park Slope is Redfin’s Hottest Luxury Neighborhood of 2026

  • Highland Park, IL and Overland Park, KS round out the top three
  • Demand from highly compensated employees of the San Francisco Bay Area's AI companies earns Noe Valley the No. 7 spot

SEATTLE - August 4, 2026 - Park Slope in Brooklyn, New York, is the hottest luxury neighborhood of 2026, according to a new report from Redfin, the real estate brokerage powered by Rocket. Highland Park, Illinois is close behind with Overland Park, Kansas ranking at No. 3.

This is according to a Redfin analysis ranking U.S. zip codes in the 100 most populous metro areas-with median home sale prices within the 65th percentile and above for their parent metro-by year-over-year growth in listing views on Redfin.com and Redfin Compete Score-a measure of how difficult it is to win a home.

"Unfazed by high mortgage rates and an uncertain global economy, luxury homebuyers are having an outsized impact on the otherwise tepid spring 2026 housing market," Asad Khan, Redfin Senior Economist, said. "The high-end neighborhoods on this list are hot because there's not enough supply to meet the high demand, bucking the buyer's market trend much of the country is experiencing this year. Many of these neighborhoods have all the classic factors that appeal to homebuyers of all walks of life, not just those with big bank accounts-lots of nearby amenities, desirable schools and relatively easy commutes with limited turnover; many families are willing to compete to get into these desirable places."
