Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – Yorktown, $355K
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s story is deeply interwoven with New York, from her Bronx beginnings to a formative chapter of her life in Yorktown Heights. At about two years old, she moved into a home her late father, Sergio Cortez-Roman, purchased in 1991. The three-bedroom residence, equipped with a single story and a finished basement, sold in 2016 for $355,000.
Growing up in such a setting, Alexandria’s early years were shaped by the values and experiences that this home and community provided. It stands as a poignant reminder of where she comes from, fueling her passion and drive to advocate for her constituents in the Bronx and beyond.
