One rundown house makes a city of 130k desolate now?

No but a trend of multiple months in a row of houses going into foreclosure does. I made a thread about it on the MB a while back. The numbers have only gotten slightly better for Laffy since I made that thread.

Some 43,358 properties started the foreclosure process in September, the lowest level since November 2005.
States bucking the national trend with the biggest increase in foreclosure starts in September compared to a year ago included Louisiana (up 468%), Missouri (up 131%), Virginia (up 70%), Massachusetts (up 60%), and Texas (up 21%).
That 468% was pretty much tied to Lafayette FWIW.
