• The average income on the island is $2.2 million, according to a recent Bloomberg report.
• I got access to a four-bedroom, $15.9 million condo designed by Bottega Veneta on the island.  
• The buyer of the 5,000-square-foot residence will have access to the building’s amenities such as a butler-staffed aperitivo bar and waterfront lounge, a private movie theater, massage rooms, hair and makeup salon, and a pool terrace with towel and refreshment service.
• But the main draw of the home seems to be the prestige and privacy of living on a members-only island for millionaires.

On a recent trip to Miami, I got access to the richest ZIP code in the country: Fisher Island, a 216-acre members-only island where the average income is $2.2 million. 

To become a member of the elite Fisher Island Club, you must pay a one-time $250,000 equity contribution and $22,256 in annual dues. And that’s after residents have bought one of the condos on the island, which cost an average of $3.2 million. About 700 families live on Fisher Island in almost 30 luxury condominium buildings.
