Nationally, the country’s hottest zip codes usually are in desirable suburban corridors, where home buyers can enjoy the slower–paced suburban living without giving up access to an economic hub. According to Realtor.com, the Northeast and Midwest continue to dominate the list: (1) Beverly, MA, (2) Marlton, NJ, (3) Leominster, MA, (4) Ballwin, MO, (5) Wayne, NJ, (6) Strongsville, OH, (7) Trumbull, CT, (8) Cumberland, RI, (9) South Windsor, CT, and (10) Bexley, OH.

Also, these Top 10 locations had a home ownership percentage of over 75%, almost 10% higher than the national average.
