You will see the entire US map and just move your mouse over each state to see the # of foreclosures. As of April 2008, the worst is NV, with 1 of every 149 housing units in foreclosure – that’s 0.67%, less than 1%. And when you click on NV, the worst county in NV is Clark County which has 1 in 118 housing units in foreclosure. That’s 0.8%, again less than 1%. I assume ‘housing units’ includes single family homes, duplexes, condos, etc. I’m sure that a number of the housing units in an area are owned free and clear, so maybe some of the higher numbers we hear are referring to rates of default on mortgages. Colorado is 1 in 344 housing units (0.29%).
