LA (Homby Hills, Bel Air, parts of Beverly Hills, Brentwood and Pacific Palisades, some of Sunset Park above Sunset Blvd above West Hollywood, Hancock Park, San Marino, parts of Pasadena and La Canada-Flintridge) has quite a huge swath of these kinds of hoods (excluding beach houses, which while hideously expensive, are less grandiose), but they have the mitigating element of the patina of age and history, and the presentations in general tend to be more tasteful (but going downhill now, as mansions are torn down to build something even more ostentatious). The AC bills in those homes in Texas must be horrific I might note.
