This analysis, based on data from Black Knight Financial Services spanning 2004 through 2015, shows how the nation's housing recovery has exacerbated inequality, leaving behind many Americans of moderate means. It also helps explain why the economic recovery feels incomplete, especially in neighborhoods where the value of housing — often the biggest family asset — has recovered little, if at all.

Quick observation:
Well preserved historic districts like Riverside/Avondale (32204,32205) led the JAX Metro region in price appreciation. Historic districts that destroyed their historic buildings in large numbers (32202, 32206) had double digit declines.
The two zip codes (29401,29403) that comprise the Charleston SC historic district recorded 49% and 82% appreciation. The zip codes adjoining those two, also had appreciation of between 41-48%. The 82% Charleston appreciation rate is more than any zip code in NC,SC,GA, and FL EXCEPT for two in Miami (Key Biscayne 33149/Miami Beach 33139).
Our beaches also had a uptick in price recovery. Largest areas of gains are in rural areas which are moving away from agricultural and toward more large housing developments.
