Los Gatos Named Trick-or-Treat Hot Spot!

Town and neighboring Monte Sereno are No. 4 on a list of 15 best places for trick-or-treating in the country.

We already knew this in Los Gatos ...

But ZipRealty, Inc., a prominent national real estate brokerage firm, has released the 15 best zip codes in the country for trick-or-treating and the Town of the Cats is No. 4 on the list!

Jamie Wilson, senior vice president of technology for ZipRealty said the agency had fine-tuned the list to uncover the best neighborhoods for trick-or-treating using zip-code specific housing data.

The 15 best zip codes for trick-or-treating are:

  • Bellaire in Houston
  • Wellesley Hills in Wellesley, Boston
  • Glencoe in Chicago
  • Los Gatos and Monte Sereno
  • Rye in Westchester County
  • Spring Branch East, Spring Valley Village, Hilshire Village
  • Washington, DC Arlington: Westover Village, Highland Park, Overlee Knolls
  • San Francisco West of Twin Peaks
  • St. Petersburg, Fla. Historic Old Northeast, Greater Woodlawn, Allendale Park/Five Points
  • Los Angeles Mid-City
  • Los Angeles Encino
  • Minneapolis Edina: Golf Terrace Heights, Country Club, Concord, White Oaks, Sunnyslop
  • Chicago Western Springs
  • Sacramento Granite Bay
  • Boston Needham  

ZipRealty's list of the best places for trick-or-treating was compiled by analyzing three evenly-weighted factors from MLS data nationwide: zip codes with median home sales prices twice as high as the median price for that metro area, zip codes with the highest density of single-family homes and zip codes that are the most walkable.
