Motor City, the second largest city in the midwest. Has good sports teams, Tigers, Pistons, Lions. Detroit is always competing for the Most Dangerous City award and won it for 2007. All though Detroit has it's fair share of crime you should keep in mind that it's not all "ghetto" and their are some very nice parts.
Tha D, Motor City, D-Town, Detroit might have the highest crime rate but it's not gonna let that bring it down. It has nice parts and good sports teams.

The capital of America's Rust Belt. The largest city in Michigan. People are leaving the city in droves and has caused an enormous population decline as a result. It isn’t one of America‘s 10 largest cities anymore. The population is around 800,000 presently after a high of 1.5 million in the 1950s but the metro area has about 4 million. Jobs are also leaving the city. It was the automobile capital of the world, but many companies have left the city for the suburbs. The latest was Comerica (a bank that Comerica Park is named after). It moved its headquarters to Dallas, the Big D. It’s Big Three and their huge labor unions have ruined this place. The auto industry, the city's largest continuously lays off workers and its pathetic labor unions bitch about “unfair” labor rules and alleged bad working conditions, despite the fact that they’re so overpaid with such little skill. Detroit has huge economic cycles--usually bad ones. As the saying goes, “When the rest of the nation gets a cold, Detroit gets pneumonia.“ The city itself is pathetic and is hardly on the rebound despite what manipulated reports say. This place builds huge casinos and has the audacity to call this “redevelopment” while the rest of its 800,000 residents are living in poverty and slums with enormous rates of violent crime and drugs. Part of its scam to call itself redeveloped was by manipulating the NFL into getting to host the 2006 Super Bowl. The NFL didn’t want to come anywhere near Detroit but the city begged NFL team owners to host a Super Bowl there if they delivered on unreasonable promises, which have yet to occur. Even Detroit getting to host a Super Bowl was a scam in itself. The Super Bowl will never be there again. The NFL has said they will NEVER return to Detroit. How ironic, neither will its population exodus. Detroit is among America’s murder capitals and is anything but a liveable city that has yet to revitalize itself. It’s still America’s shit hole. Always has been and always will be. It should be incinerated and rebuilt.
Detroit is close to being the worst city in America. Just keep driving but pray your car doesn't break down in the city.

A large metropolitan area located in southeast Michigan on the shore of the Detroit River...It currently has a declining population-which is really sad-and a city government which is completely pathetic and useless.
I didn't even grow up in the Detroit area (I grew up in redneck-fuck Ohio in the middle of a fuckin' cornfield) but I love the Detroit area and live there now. Lots of stuff to do...Too many people out there love to bash Detroit but the town has a LOT of potential...what metropolitan center DOESN'T have problems! New York sucks ass, but everybody thinks it's such a great town. It's usually pretty-boy yuppie soccer turds and redneck sheep-fuckers that bash the city anyway...
Basically, people need to get their heads out of their asses, start cleaning up their neighborhoods, knock down the abandoned buildings and crack houses, build new shit on the vacant lots, and elect a mayor and city council members who will stand up against the bullshit and revitalize the city...It'd be nice if the rest of the windows in the skyline could be lit up at night, too, not just half of them.
The racial bullshit all over the place has to stop too-doesn't matter what the fuck color your skin is-it's just skin, after all, and we're all the same inside.
Despite the problems, it's still a GREAT CITY!
Go Wings! Go Pistons! Go Tigers! Go Lions (whatever)!

redneck sister-fucker: You live in Detroit? Aren't you afraid you'll get shot or mugged or something?
Detroiter: Whatever...go fuck your cows!

A city that is usually defined only by it's wild ghettos and crime-torn hoods. Though Detroit does have some very nice, safe districts, I am officially declaring it the 2nd most dangerous ghetto in America.
Mother: "Kids, we're going on a vacation to Detroit!"
Kid: "Oh FUCK!!! Why me?!?!?!"
Mother: "Don't worry, we're going to the Ford district."
Kid: Phew!

1. The largest city in Michigan, and currently the 11th largest city in the US.
2. Once upon a time, the murder capital of the US.
3. The location of every single sports record ever broken in Michigan.
3. The cleanest, most beautiful city in the world. See also, sarcasm.

If you live anywhere in Michigan other than Detroit, you consider Detroit to be it's own separate state. Detroit is instead "Un-Michigan".

A ghetto wasteland that would be more useful as a nuclear weapon testing ground. It is a poor excuse for a city. The city is run by an all incompetent black administration that has seen more of its members indicted for crimes any other place in history. Detroit is also a synonym for corruption
