Hell's corporate headquarters

Where corporate HQs like Comerica move to better places in the SunBelt.

Gunbelt.

Where people don't live anymore.

Where urban revitalization is not.

The single-worst city in the country.

A population loss of over 50% in 5 decades. Current population of about 850,000 from 1.6 million and not even in the top 10 largest US cities anymore.

Where jobs are not.

Anything south of 8 Mile Road where you turn around as you approach the city limits.

A place called Flint is even better.

Where the first state government moved out over 100 years ago.

Even San Jose, CA now has a larger population.

The opposite of San Diego and Seattle.

The absolute WORST place for a single person to develop a serious relationship unless you like:

1.) Trash
2.) Ghetto type materialistic hoes
3.) Single Parent Drama
4.) Sex without commitment
5.) to chase child support payments
6.) settling for less

If you have no fresh ride, no credit, or no good job, the top 5 listed above is what you will run into frequently in the D-E-T. I love my hometown, but it is the truth.
Not only is Detroit the Baby Moma Capitol, it was also the STD capitol of 2004.

Thee home of Rock and Roll! The greatest city, ever. Everyone who tries to bring it down can burn in hell. We're supposed to be bigger than Gaycago. The home of the best cars in the world, Detroit Muscle cars. Home of the greatest hockey team, the Detroit Red Wings! Home of the greatest company: GM! Home of the greatest morning show, Drew and Mike. Home of Carhartt, the best pop ever, Faygo, and the greatest potato chips, ever, Better Made.
There aint no party like a Detroit party cos a Detroit don't stop! BIIIIIIIIIIIITCH!

A city that is on the rise. The Downtown is slowly becoming popular and with more sports stadiums downtown, more people are being drawn down there. I have also been volunteering in some bad neighborhoods, including the southwest side and i have also been working rebuilding corktown. It's turning into a nice place down there.
if you think you are being sweet by saying you saw 8 mile, go into the southwest side and then tell me you saw Detroit.
