Jesus..just looked up the number of forclosed homes in my zip code

[rainbow4321]

Over 7, I lost count of the dots after that, they were piled on top of each other in some areas. JUST in my zip code alone.... The city itself has 250,000 but it has several zips in it. The map I looked up goes about 2 mile in radius.

On edit: It's in Plano, TX---- for nonlocals: one of the richest counties/cities in North TX..not that ***I*** play any part in that wealth, I just happened to land here 16 years ago.

You might have to subscribe, I don't know but here is the direct link and also the DMN website (link is also on the front page about forclosures:

3. it's so sad

driving around my old city (San Jose, CA.) and I must have seen 4 homes that were either being foreclosed upon or bank owned within 1 square mile.

Cheney's old 'hood.

18. Going by the "city by city" option is interesting

instead of "sort by zip code": Aubrey, TX: 972 housing structures and **135** foreclosures. Geez.

7. "Over 7"?!? Is this thread a joke?

:wtf:

[rainbow4321]

13. Typo...meant ***70***

My bad...I was on my way out the door right after typing this and it's been past the edit time.

[Romulox]

17. OK. Didn't mean to overreact. nt

8. You lost count after 7? How do you make change?

[rainbow4321]

14. Thanks for the snarky remark...

I mistyped and should have put 70.......................missed the edit hour cutoff.

10. All those people who failed to play by the rules

:sarcasm:

[w8liftinglady]

11. question-if the assessed value is 90,000,why would the auction price be 120,000?

[dkofos]

12. WOW I counted over 20 in my neighborhood alone (75023). 2 on my street.

And this is one of the more affordable neighborhoods in Plano.

15. That's where I'm at....my f'd up my subject heading..should have said 70

That'll teach me to post too quickly...was running late for an appt. so I posted and left..didn't get back til now x(
