The 53211 zip code also has a significantly lower home equity percentage than both the Wisconsin state percentage of 58% and the national percentage of 63%.

There are several factors that may contribute to the low home values in the 53211 zip code. One potential reason is that this area has been hit hard by economic recession over the past few years. Many people who were already struggling to make ends meet have had their incomes reduced even further by the recession, which has led to an increase in foreclosure rates and decreased demand for housing. Additionally, many homeowners in this area are aging and may not be able to afford to make large repairs or upgrades to their homes. As a result, these homes are likely less desirable to potential buyers than homes located in areas that have not experienced as much economic hardship.

Despite these factors, there are still some homeowners in the 53211 zip code who are able to benefit from high home values. For example, many people who own their homes outright or who have significant amounts of equity in their homes may be able to use this money for other purposes (such as paying off debt or investing). Additionally, some people who live in neighborhoods with strong property values may be better positioned than others if they decide they want to sell their homes later on.
