a very useful WSJ data-set on sub-prime/high-risk mortgages

A very cool data set from the same WSJ article-- in the form of an interactive map...

In each state, there are data for:
a.) the number of high-risk loans (not that interesting since it's not per capita or normed in some way to account for population)
b.) the percentage of high-risk loans-- the number of individuals impacted
c.) the dollar volume of high-risk loans-- the impact on the industry

Data are recorded by state and by metropolitan area within states.


Here's one other data map produced for the article...
























Thanks to the WSJ for their impressive work on an important topic...
