Answer: Baltic Avenue
There are only two sets that have two properties: brown (Mediterranean Avenue and Baltic Avenue) and dark blue (Park Place and Boardwalk). Interestingly, brown is the first set (also the least expensive) and dark blue is the last set (also the most expensive). Prior to 2008, the brown set of properties was colored purple instead.
From Quiz: Traveling Around the Monopoly Board
Answer: Brown
Baltic Avenue along with Mediterranean Avenue are the cheapest properties on the board. Baltic lies between Income Tax and Community Chest.
[Note: In the newer versions as of 2008, the color of this monopoly was changed from purple to brown - perhaps to better differentiate it from the burgundy/magenta properties.]

Answer: St. James Place
It is located in the orange section of the board. In a particular episode of "House, M.D.", they talk about St. James Place. Though there might be a St. Paul's Place, I haven't heard of it. Same with St. John's... In my research, I learned that there is a St. Andrew's Place in England, though it's a very small TOWN.

Answer: Mr. Monopoly
Rich Uncle Pennybags was not part of the original game in 1935. He was added later in 1937 by Parker Brothers to give the game a little character. It was not until recently that he was called Mr. Monopoly, as it is an easier name to remember.

If you know anything about the Iditarod, you are probably aware that Anchorage is the starting point. The long-distance race for sled dogs and their handlers, called mushers, is held in early March, not the most hospitable time of year to be outdoors in Alaska.
Although Anchorage is where the race starts, this is more of a ceremony with the competitive racing beginning from Willow, nearly one hundred miles north of Anchorage. The cost of buying Anchorage is a rather measly $60.

Answer: Mediterranean
On the Monopoly board (U.S. version), the property that is directly after 'GO' is Mediterranean Avenue. Interestingly, Mediterranean Avenue is the cheapest property on the board, with a purchase price of only $60. Despite its low value, it can still be a strategic purchase for players looking to build a monopoly on the brown properties and collect rent from opponents who land on it. In fact, some Monopoly experts recommend buying up all the properties on the board, regardless of their value, in order to prevent opponents from building monopolies and gaining an advantage.
