Francisco\u2019s coveted Presidio, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/94129-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94129<\/a> ranks as <strong>California\u2019s #1 most expensive ZIP code<\/strong>. Rents here average a whopping $4,762, just a few dollars short of reaching <strong>3.5 times the national average<\/strong>. The rent growth seems to have topped out, though\u2014the current average rent is the result of a 2% year-over-year decrease, all this without new units having entered the market\u2026 Home to museums, trendy restaurants an abundance of parklands, nature trails and wooded areas, Presidio also showcases some of the most iconic vistas in the world\u2014like the San Francisco Bay. The area has also seen significant commercial development over the past two decades, with the 23-acre Letterman Digital Arts Center home to some of the most coveted jobs in the city. Presidio also ranks as the 4<sup>th<\/sup> most expensive ZIP code nationwide, surpassed only by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/manhattan-ny\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manhattan<\/a> enclaves of affluence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>California\u2019s second priciest ZIP code<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/94105-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94105<\/a>, is also located in San Francisco. Located in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/south-of-market-san-francisco-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">South of Market<\/a> area, specifically <strong>Rincon Hill<\/strong>, the average rent in 94105 clocks in at $4,380, making it <strong>the 9<sup>th<\/sup> most expensive ZIP code for renters in the country<\/strong>. Here, a 21% y-o-y expansion of the rental stock has put a slight downward pressure on the average rent\u2014yes, 94105 is the second priciest ZIP code in California in spite of a 3% moderation of the rents! The fashionable residential neighborhood of Gold Rush years, turned blighted industrial area at the turn of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, has experienced a revival in recent years. Nowadays, many of the Financial District\u2019s workers call the pedestrian-centric neighborhood home. High-income earners have their choice of pricey residential developments in the area, with luxury apartments particularly popular in the area\u2019s iconic skyscrapers.<\/p>\n<p>With an average rent of $4,070, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/94158-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94158<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/mission-bay-san-francisco-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mission Bay<\/a> ranks as <strong>California\u2019s 3<sup>rd<\/sup> most expensive ZIP code<\/strong>. This is also the result of a 4% decrease from $4,252, due to a 9% inventory growth. Targeted for redevelopment since the late \u201890s, the Mission Bay of today is a vibrant hub of biotech and medical jobs as well as a vast collection of luxury residential buildings. Currently one of the trendiest spots in a city known for iconic neighborhoods, Mission Bay continues to gain traction with new projects, like the highly-anticipated Chase Center, the new home of the NBA\u2019s Golden State Warriors.<\/p>\n<p>At #4 we have another one from The Golden City, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/us\/CA\/San-Francisco-county\/94107\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94107<\/a> with an average rent of $3,738. The $3,588 average rent in San Francisco&#8217;s fifth priciest ZIP code, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/us\/CA\/San-Mateo-county\/94103\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94103<\/a>, was &#8220;only&#8221; enough for 7<sup>th<\/sup> place on state level, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/us\/CA\/Santa-Clara-county\/94301\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94301<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/palo-alto-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Palo Alto<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/us\/CA\/San-Mateo-county\/94025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">94025<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/apartments-for-rent\/menlo-park-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Menlo Park<\/a> have claimed the 5<sup>th<\/sup> and 6<sup>th<\/sup> spots with $3,718 $3,657, respectively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Curious to see if other states\u2019 priciest ZIPs can take California on?
