The Bottom Line

AvoidArchuleta may be challenging for traditional rentals. High prices or low rents make cash flow difficult.

Archuleta County in Colorado scores 40/100, ranking #953 of 1,000 US counties (top 95%). The 3.95% rent-to-price ratio may require creative strategies or below-market purchases for positive cash flow. Current market conditions make traditional buy-and-hold investing challenging. Consider house hacking, value-add strategies, or all-cash purchases.
