Nebraska’s high-end residential market displays a fascinating hierarchy of value, with thirty elite neighborhoods spanning from Whispering Ridge at $422,225 to Regency’s commanding $781,723 (per the Zillow Home Value Index). This premium market segment reveals distinct tiers of luxury, with seventeen neighborhoods positioned in the entry-luxury range ($422K-$500K), eight in the premium category ($500K-$600K), and an exclusive ultra-luxury segment of five neighborhoods above $600,000. Western Omaha’s overwhelming presence in these rankings, claiming the majority of positions across all tiers, establishes it as the epicenter of Nebraska’s luxury residential development.
The market’s evolution through 2024 reveals a story of remarkable stability and measured growth, with 29 of the 30 neighborhoods showing appreciation from June to November.
