Alpine County, California
Alpine County is California's least populous county, a high Sierra basin around Markleeville with no incorporated city and more national forest than private land. The market is second homes, Kirkwood and Bear Valley ski traffic, and Highway 88/89 recreation property, with federal ownership, avalanche terrain, and winter road closures limiting buildable ground to a handful of valley pockets.
