Housing & Dwellings in Castle Cove
Where and how people live — the homes, how they are held, and what they cost.
Typical monthly mortgage payments of $4,000 make Castle Cove one of the most expensive places to live in the region. The area is dominated by large, detached family homes, with very few renters compared to the rest of the state. This combination of high costs and high ownership creates a distinct housing landscape.
