Forclosure Rates
This is interesting. The maps shows Jackson County has an extremely low foreclosure rate. With about 28,350 households in the county, the rate is only 1 in 9,450. Compare that to the rates in the collar counties of Chicago. Look at Kane County. 172,000 households with a whopping foreclosure rate of 1 in 310. Or Will County. 230,000 households with a foreclosure rate of 1 in 283.
