These Remote American Towns Have Some of the Most Stunning Homes

Whether you have an impressive budget for a home or you simply enjoy living vicariously, it’s always fun to discover to places with beautiful settings and even more beautiful homes. Here we have cultivated a list of 50 American towns that are both remote and that have some ultra-nice homes to swoon over.

To determine the remote towns with ultra-nice homes, Moms Who Think reviewed five-year data on median home value from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2022 American Community Survey . Cities, towns, and Census-designated places located at least 20 miles away from cities with populations of 50,000 or more were ranked based on median home value. Geometry attributes used to calculate the distance between city centroids came from the U.S. Census Bureau. Only places with at least 500 residents were considered.
