(Undated)  --  From January through June, foreclosure rates were up over the first half of 2009 in both the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area and Duluth-Superior.  The Twin Cities saw a four-percent year-over-year jump while the Twin Ports had a 48-percent increase.  But RealtyTrac's Daren Blomquist [[ bloom-quist ]] says unemployment is still relatively low and should help those areas get out of the high foreclosure cycle more quickly, within years possibly.  Blomquist notes the Twin Cities' first-half foreclosure numbers were down from the previous six months and Duluth-Superior is far down on the national list of metro foreclosure rates.
