Jeff Bezos Move To Miami

Bezos and his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, moved to Miami about 18 months ago, to live closer to his parents and also to accommodate the shifting operations of his aerospace company, Blue Origin, to Cape Canaveral. Sanchez recently joined a Blue Origin spaceflight alongside celebrities like Katy Perry and Gayle King.

In an Instagram post announcing his relocation, Bezos stated, “I have lived in Seattle longer than anywhere else and have so many amazing memories here.” “A part of my heart will always be with you, Seattle.”

But according to other media sources, the decision may also have been made because of Washington’s 7% capital gains tax, which was maintained by the state Supreme Court in 2023 and may have raised Bezos’ tax liability.

The “Billionaire Bunker” is the name of Bezos and Sanchez’s new Miami home. Bezos paid $90 million for his most recent Miami property in 2024, a mansion spanning more than 12,000 square feet with six bedrooms and nine bathrooms.
