Chicago Case/Shiller Index

Value of housing in Chicago metro from the peak (Oct '06) to most recent release:

168.60
168.59
168.18
167.65
167.52
167.49
167.04
165.87
165.68
165.94
166.13
165.77
164.42
163.12
161.61
160.03
156.42
153.29
150.33
150.44
150.03


That's an eleven percent decline in the last 19 months. If your home was worth $200K in 2006, it's now about $178K.

Chicago metro is (arguably) the best proxy for Milwaukee, of all the Case/Shiller markets studied.
