Even with the drop, over 100,000 new properties entered some stage of foreclosure in March, and the foreclosure rate still represented a 63% increase over March 2005.

The notable exceptions included Detroit — a longtime posterchild for the foreclosure meltdown — and Philadelphia, along with a few other Pennsylvania metro areas.
