Lowest Costs Beyond the Mortgage in Oregon

Where the mortgage is most of what owning costs, and everything else is a thin slice on top. These are the counties where a payoff changes the most: the share in the first column is roughly what you would still be paying every month with no mortgage left at all. Modelled at 20% down at the rate this site currently uses, so the share moves with both.

Where does yours land? Every county in America is somewhere on this scale, including the one you live in.
