Detroit

The city that caused the majority of Michigan’s population to avoid 8-mile

The city that everyone says is getting better, but really isn’t

Where everyone in Michigan says they’re from, even though almost no one lives there

Crime and murder is high, but at least we have the Red Wings
P1: Where are you from?

P2: Detroit

P1: My friend lives there, he says that it’s not as bad as everyone says

P2: Well he’s wrong

Detroit

In terms of cities as women, Detroit is compared to the flashier, sexier, crunchier, trendier cities/women, and often serve to inflate the self esteem of cities who actually aren 't as awesome as they think they are, or are having problems and want someone to make them feel prettier. Some of her worst enemies are actually her cousins (the Detroit suburbs) who think she is an embaressing relative, and think they know what is best for her, but bad mouth her and get in her way. Detroit has problems, but thats not all there is to her. The auto industry, a boyfriend, has been part of her best and worst times.
Los Angeles: Pssst..have you seen Detroit lately? I feel so bad for her. EVERYONE says her days are numbered.
New York: I know. I feel bad sometimes, because we are so awesome and successful. Detroit just doesn't know whats good for her. She needs to get her priorities straight. Her schools are a mess.
((crickets))

or

Portland: Poor Detroit. So unenlightened. She likes abusive men. They should look into local foods, or a market where you can buy fresh food. Plus they need diversity.
Seattle: Oh, I know! Too bad they don't live near water and Canada like us. But they aren't as progressive as us.

Westland (suburb): God cousin Detroit is so embaressing. I just party at her place then get going back.

Birmingham: Its a shame what happened to my cousin Detroit. She should have better shopping. But everyone just wants to come shopping with me.

Eastpointe: I try not to let anyone know about my cousin, Detroit. I really am closer to my cousin, Grosse Pointe. Oh yeah, I used to be East Detroit. We're sooo fancy here.

Detroit

Amazing city, typically wrongly defined by stereotypes. It has it's pros, and it's cons, but it's never as bad as people say.
Place where anyone in Michigan claims to be from. You can ask someone from Kalamazoo or Cheboygan where they're from, and they'll say Detroit.
Detroit has a bad rep, thanks to stereotypes.
