I was just checking out Zillow’s new redesign and noticed something I hadn’t seen before. The Zillow Heat Map layer shows you relative price per square foot over a region. Check the box in the upper-right of the map view and zoon out to city level to see it in action.
Was that there before or is this new?
Drew from Zillow here –
We added lots of cool stuff last night, but this feature was not among the new ones. We actually launched heatmaps in July

and highlight them on our blog every now and then.
Here’s one example: http://www.zillowblog.com/zillow_blog/2006/07/the_hot_hills_o.html
Thanks Drew. Very cool. I also see you have a page which highlights heat maps from major cities around the US that link to the city pages so you can get the latest.
