"STOCKTON, United States (AFP) - A town in central California has become ground zero in the wave of foreclosures plaguing the US housing market in the wake of the sub-prime lending crisis.

"We've got 350 homes for sale in this neighborhood right now and at this rate, that is five years of inventory," said Taylor.
