The face of Richie Cunningham, Ron Howard has moved far beyond the high-school lockers of Milwaukee, his transformation into an Oscar-winning director and producer positions him as the most financially successful alumnus of the show. With an estimated net worth of up to $200 million, he now commands a formidable presence behind the camera.
Ron’s property portfolio is equally impressive. In 2004 he and his wife Cheryl purchased an apartment in New York’s exclusive Eldorado Building for $5.6 million; they still own it today. The couple also own a second New York apartment purchased in 2002 for $712,000. The former owners of a sprawling $27.5 million Greenwich, Connecticut estate, sold in 2014, Ron’s real-estate decisions reflect his elevated status and enduring ascendancy in entertainment.

The 80-year-old's income spans acting, producing and the much-loved children’s book series, Hank Zipzer.
Henry and his wife, Stacey Weitzman, purchased their Brentwood, Los Angeles property in 1993 for $3.4 million. Since then it has appreciated significantly, with current valuations placing it in the $11 million to $15 million range.

Tom Bosley, the genial Howard Cunningham himself, left us in 2010. At the time of his passing he had an estimated net worth of US $5 million. Though detailed records of his property holdings are few, it was known that he owned a home in Palm Springs, California.
Tom’s legacy is understated but enduring, he provided the anchor for one of TV’s most iconic families and quietly secured his place in television history.

Though details of his current property holdings are limited, we know he resides in Longmont, Colorado, and continues to work in the entertainment industry, including voice-acting roles. Don’s path conveys a modest continuity: the man who once brought levity to the Cunningham living room still pursues his craft without necessarily seeking mega-houses or sprawling estates.

Tragically, the story of Erin Moran, best known to viewers as Joanie Cunningham, serves as a sobering counterpoint. At the time of her death in 2017, aged 56, her reported net worth was just $50,000. In 2001 she had purchased a house in Palmdale for US $100,000 but by 2010 the home was foreclosed, and she went on to live in her mother-in-law's trailer in Indiana.
