A Naples neighborhood is tops in the nation when it comes to the housing market. ATTOM Data Solutions recently ranked upwards of 10,000 neighborhoods nationwide to come up with its housing index, taking into account things like home price appreciation, affordability, property taxes and unemployment rates. The index also considered a neighborhood’s crime rate and school scores.
When taking everything into account, the Pine Ridge neighborhood of Naples took the very top spot. The neighborhood is known for its sprawling estate homes, some of which are priced in the multi-million dollar range.
With many established, yet recently updated homes to choose from, Pine Ridge often includes large homes and large home sites, close to prime shops,

According to industry reports, US luxury home prices surged sharply during the first few months of the year, spurred in part by a shortage of available luxury housing in places such as Naples.
