Last Decade Iowa / US comparison

The Gazette reported in the Wednesday 12-30-2009 addition that basically, prices are higher and incomes are lower than they were 10 years ago.  Median income is down $2,000, public debt is double and gas is 30% higher.  At least the Iowa City housing market is stable.  This is good news if you're a real estate broker, or a home owner!  I believe it also shows the stable influence of the U of I on hte market, too.

Let's hope for, no, let's work for a better decade.  Our kids deserve it!
