Even some of the cities that suffered the most in the housing bust are showing signs of improvement, with prices beginning to recover in places like Miami, Atlanta and Detroit, according to the latest housing data.

住宅バブル崩壊で一番ボコられた都市にも改善の兆しあり。
マイアミ、アトランタ、デトロイトなんかでも価格回復が始まった模様（最新データ）。

In fact, there is improvement across the board, with home prices nationally inching up over their levels a year ago for the first time since 2010, when sales were helped by a temporary tax credit for home buyers.

実際、全面的に改善が見られており、ホームバイヤー向けの一時的な減税措置が追い風になった2010年以来初めて、全米的に住宅価格が年前の水準を上回っている模様。

The data is contained in the S.&P./Case-Shiller Home Price Index, which tracks prices nationally and in 20 major cities. Both showed gains over the past year, from June to June — 1.2 percent nationally, and 0.5 percent in the 20 cities. Though prices were still depressed in a few of the cities compared with a year ago, every one of them showed price gains from May to June. The report is highly regarded because it tracks actual price differences as a home is sold and resold over time.

スタンダード・アンド・プアーズとケースシラーの住宅価格指数は一年前から改善中。
全国的には+1.2%。
20都市では+0.5%。
一部の都市では今も一年前を下回るものの、いずれも5-6月期は↑。

Home prices are still down almost a third from their peak in 2006, but most recent reports are pointing to a slow recovery and increased optimism that could encourage potential buyers to take the plunge.

2006年のピーク比3分の1。
とはいえ、直近レポートはゆるやかな回復を示し、楽観強まる。
