We have moved down off the top of the Realty Trac Foreclosure Rate Heat Map: Find Ann Arbor Foreclosure Deals.

Nevada, Arizona, California post top state foreclosure rates
Nearly 5 percent of all Nevada housing  units (one in 21) received at least one foreclosure filing in the first half of  2011, giving Nevada the nation's highest foreclosure rate during the six-month  period despite continued decreases in foreclosure activity. A total of 53,217 Nevada properties  received a foreclosure filing from January to June, a decrease of 17 percent  from both the previous six months as well as from the first six months of 2010.  Overall Nevada  foreclosure activity decreased on a year-over-year basis for the fifth straight  month in June despite a 19 percent year-over-year spike in REO activity.

Kathy, congrats for getting off the top of the foreclosure list.  I thought this was a very informative map at a glance.  I was pleased to see that Alabama's foreclosure rate was relatively low.
