Zuckerberg Buys $150M Mansion in Miami's 'Billionaire Bunker'

Meta CEO signals potential permanent move from California amid proposed 'billionaire tax'

Published on Feb. 10, 2026

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has purchased a $150-200 million mansion in the exclusive Indian Creek neighborhood of Miami, Florida, known as the 'Billionaire Bunker.' Sources indicate Zuckerberg and his family plan to move in by April, hinting at a potential permanent relocation from California as the state weighs a new one-time 5% 'billionaire tax' on those with a net worth over $1 billion.

Why it matters

Zuckerberg's move to Miami's 'Billionaire Bunker' reflects a growing trend of tech titans and ultra-wealthy individuals fleeing high-tax states like California for low-tax havens like Florida. This exodus could have major implications for state and local tax revenues, as well as the broader economic and cultural landscape.

The details

Zuckerberg's new two-acre estate in Indian Creek is located along Biscayne Bay and includes several private properties. The neighborhood is home to other ultra-wealthy residents like Jeff Bezos, Tom Brady, and Ivanka Trump. Sources say the move is more than just a vacation home, with Zuckerberg's neighbor Irma Braman indicating the family plans to be moved in by April.

  • Zuckerberg purchased the Indian Creek mansion in early 2026.
