LW residents know this. They have found homes that combine “affordability with desirability,” according to realtor.com, which analyzed the median home list prices of more than 1,300 towns along U.S. coastlines over a year ending in April 2022. LW came in No. 6 at $400,338.
To be considered, the locations had to have homes available for sale, have at least one arts, entertainment or recreation venue and at least five restaurants or lodging locations per 1,000 households. Secondly, to ensure geographic diversity, the list only includes one beach town per state.
No. 1 on realtor.com’s 10 most affordable beach towns for homebuyers in the U.S. was Atlantic City, New Jersey, with a median home list price of $161,754. Atlantic City was deemed the country’s most affordable beach town.
