America’s Top 10 Most Empty Cities in 2011

Posted: 20 Mar 2011 08:33 AM PDT

EmptyhouseVacancies, empty homes, zombie  subdivisions, foreclosures, and REO. This is the real estate story of 2011 and as usual some cities are fairing better than others. The city of Orlando takes the crown as the most empty American city with an amazing 23 percent of their apartments empty and 4.3 percent of their homes unoccupied.

The recession is just magnifying the problem in these cities as their is not enough demand for housing and the relocation market is restricted. Add in an overabundance of inventory and you have these cities sitting empty.
