What is it about Detroit?

Travel Info
Why do most people think negative about Detroit, even when they've never stepped foot in the city? Everything associated with Detroit people instantly frown up. Yeah, Detroit has been on the top of a lot of negative list but that's because that's what the media want's to tell you but if you came to the city yourself you would see that Detroiters are good people and we're certainly a safer city than Vegas.

Travel Tips

Now I don't know about it being safer than Vegas but some parts of Detroit do have nice people that look out for you. You're pretty much safe in your neigborhood if you know everybody and have a good rapor.

Yea, you're right. I certainly thought that about Detroit till I went there (my husband is from a suburb of Detroit). This was a long time ago, but I remember it being quite nice.
Detroit has a well-earned, violent reputation and being 'a safer city than Vegas' is hardly a recommendation.
What killed Detroit was the Devil's Night riots. Also the riots after the Pistons Championship and then the ML King riots. Just way too many riots.
Because the news only shows
and tells the bad things about
Detroit it never shows the good
Detroit is a very, very good city, for travelers and the citizens. it also is a safe city to travel around. the hotels there are nice, and there is always something to do! everyone there is always kind to you. it's just we stink at football. = )
PREACH TO THE CHOIR! Now watch the same assholes ask questions that are negative about Detroit just for the hell of it.
