The source for the foreclosure database is HUD (Housing and Urban Development) tabulation at the Census Tract level. The data is current as of June 2008 and reflects foreclosure data over the 18 month period January 2007 - June 2008. These are estimates based on the use of a number of sources: the June 08 Mortgage Bankers Association National Delinquency Survey (state level), Federal Reserve board data, and Equifax data used for validation of the model. Also included is an interesting comparison between HUD based HMDA mortgages in total and those which they believe to be at high risk.
This data will be useful for comparative analyses between areas. Absolute levels of foreclosures are much higher than these at present.
