46 <br /> HOUSING IN ORANGE COUNTY <br /> Orange County Has Conditions That Make it <br /> Somewhat Different than the Rest of the Triangle <br /> • Housing construction in the county is slower than elsewhere, and it's <br /> more focused on single-family homes for sale. <br /> • Housing costs—for rent or sale—are arguably the highest among <br /> Triangle counties, and low-income renters are cost burdened. <br /> • Outside parts of Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and Hillsboro, zoning for large- <br /> lot single-family homes dominates. <br /> • Current land-use policies may be contributing to higher home prices <br /> and increased transportation costs. <br /> I N S T I T U T 1 <br />
