Bankruptcy filings in Phoenix hit 2,763 in May, up 35% from 2009.
But that represents a DECREASE from April 2010 according to myFOXPhoenix.com
Their headline says, “Phoenix Bankruptcy Filings Fall in May”
83% of these cases were Chapter 7 bankruptcies which effectively offer a clean slate by wiping out most debt.
Those numbers are staggering! Yep, the recovery is well underway.
Geesh.
I think my headline is more accurate don’t you?
