Top 10 Foreclosure Cities in America

February 13, 2008

Which cities currently have the highest foreclosure rates? Forbes.com recently published a slideshow featuring the top 10 places where foreclosure is commonplace.

Here are a few cities that made the list:

Albany, NY (1,617 foreclosure filings, .25% of households)

Baltimore, Md (10,059 foreclosure filings, .73% of households)

New Haven, Conn (7,348 foreclosure filings, 1.09% of households)

Sacramento, CA (49,532 foreclosure filings, 3.1% of households)

Stockton, CA (22,184 foreclosure filings, 4.86% of households)

It’s amazing that there are places right now (nod to Stockton) where almost five in every 100 households are facing foreclosure.  If you live near one of these top foreclosure cities, you may want to take a look at the HUD homes for sale in your area.
