Elsewhere, affluent areas are also home to flagship stores for luxury brands, be it a jeweler or a major fashion house. Sometimes, rich celebs just want to live in convenience. Calabasas is closely located to Los Angeles, keeping Kim Kardashian connected to the City of Angels. Meanwhile, Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton has lived on the coast of Monaco, which hosts a world famous Grand Prix every May.

With that said, it’s time to take a tour of the world’s wealthiest neighborhoods. From Egypt’s secret Garden City to Dubai’s expansive Palm Jumeirah, it’s time to ride through the richest roads around the world.
