Currently, the official statistics have Detroit's unemployment rate at 21% and the average home value is about $18,500(Although I'd surmise that the cost of a livable home is much higher).

You are very likely staring at America's near-term future as a whole nation when you view this essay.

It's not really that bad. Though it's a pretty ****ty city.

I think we all know Funk is the real problem with Detroit.

This is why I'm taking my degree out of Michigan. Grand Rapids isn't bad, but even Michiganders are scared of Detroit.

Looks like a great place to shoot some super hero themed, gay librarians.

My sister and brother-in-law are firefighters in/around Detroit. I hear urban spelunking is pretty popular with all of the abandoned complexes and factories.

Whats wrong with saying librarians? I searched it just now, and people say it in the free forum all the time. Why can't I?

Anyways, it was a reference to that guy who went around Detroit(I'm pretty sure it was Detroit) taking pictures of old buildings and stumbled upon some people shooting; yeah.

Ven at work told me a Detroit story but it's inappropriate for this topic. Let's just say it involves rape in streets.

Greektown is kinda nice.

Re: Detroit would be awesome for filming low budget post apocalyptic movies

Greek town is nice, as is the first two miles of Woodward. Outside of that, the city is a complete **** hole. Of all the major cities I've been to it's far and away the worst.
