Note. Nice video but…Correction. It was car capital of the world, not of the nation. Also Detroit is known for its history of music, Motown records. To add, how about Mexican town, Greek town, Irish town, Indian Village and the eastern market? All awesome! To add, the Q Line urban train and the People Mover subway is all free to take. Also designed free parking in downtown and, new tallest skyscraper, a record breaking new bridge being built to Canada and the Ford Brain Train Station is another fine addition. Another Correction: the population increases substantially last year in 2023 and the violent crime has went down substantially in the last 10 years. Downtown in particular is pretty safe for an American mega city.
Detroit is a good place to visit and to live because I am a Detroiter born and raised in the D. Always something to do all year around in the city. But my favorite is in the summer on a beautiful nice day. Great food wonderful people and much more. Detroit the comeback city. Welcome to our city.
Have nothing but love for my hometown. We’ve been spit at, talked about, mocked, and yet, we’re still here. And that shows the resiliency and toughness that detroit is all about. However, I’d like the city to take the offensive into making itself better for the long term future. Make a push to become a regional high tech center specializing in aerospace and nanotechnology, as well as it becoming a financial center for banking. Establish true city-wide public transportation with light rail. Let’s all work together, not as blacks or whites, but as detroiters.

I bought a house here in Detroit in 2020. These homes were built in the 20’s and 30’s. The brick is still good. My house would cost 350-400K to build now. Detroit has changed for the better in the last 10-15 years. I’m glad I’m here along for the ride as it happens.
While you can ride the Detroit People Mover around the downtown area, it doesn't go as far as the airport. DTW is 17 miles via I-94 or US-12 from Detroit. Monthly and Yearly passes are available, otherwise it's $0.75 each time you board. Detroit is a great city with much to see and do. With three casinos plus one across the river in Windsor, Canada. Take a cruise on the Detroit Princess along the river or visit Greektown. See the best auto show in the United States, The North American International Auto Show.
Not so sure about the praise for public transit and the DPM does NOT go to the airport! Love the rest of this though! Just keep in mind that our home prices are lower but we do have a lot of other expenses that make up the cost difference. Higher insurance and tax rates are costly, but overall its a great deal to live!
Detroit isn’t a bad city. Downtown has lots of history and is really nice. The reason why I think it’s bad is because of the outside areas like gratiot and vandyke and around the outside but downtown is really nice full of culture and american history 😊
Thank you for your Video 👍We are planning on moving to Detroit April 2023 from Oahu, HI. It has become unlivable here, too expensive and too crowded. We've been following the Detroit Comeback and absolutely love the old brick houses 😍 We're planning on renting first to find the right neighborhood for us. We're very excited and really can't wait to get off this rock in the middle of the Pacific 🤗❣️
Bro, be careful. Detroit isn't the best place to live. People say it's coming back, but it's been coming back since the 80s. Please make sure you've done enough of learning about detroit. The educational system is horrible and people are violent. Down town may be fun, but the rest of detroit isn't that good.
@@shadshads7933 isn't that what you're doing now. Besides there's a whole lot to gain in life on the internet. I don't think being a rude mean person is one of them.
@@15jewjew U must be living in some lalaland with butterflies and unicorns if my manner of communication seems to be rude for U bro. Life is cool. It shouldn't be avoided because of silly far-fetched fears. Just saying 💯 factz👌
I always wanted to come back home I'm originally from Detroit michigan I lived in upstate New York for 15 years the last place I lived in was Southfield michigan I miss being home in michigan everyday and it hurts alot 😢💔
Come on back, Southfield is an amazing community and so is Detroit! I moved away for 19 years and was so happy to come back. Real Estate agent here and happy to show you around!
I have been considering moving and buying a house in detroit, even opening a taco shack or some type of mexican food, but the property tax in detroit is 4.6% way way too high
Property taxes are high, but the values are low so it balances out to similar that of most places. Also a lot of neighborhoods and condo buildings fall into what is known as NEZ Zones where taxes are capped at a lower rate. Also, Detroit has a very fair property tax appeal system and many/most people are able to lower their taxes. I am a Realtor and would be more than happy to chat more about this! Detroit taxes are complex but they shouldn't deter over other cities. Example, I just sold a Condo for $232,000. The taxable value was $70k... not $116k which you would think, so the taxes are around $4100. It might be high taxes but the condo itself should have cost around $400k to buy in most other cities. So I do encourage you to pursue your dreams in Detroit!
@@alexanderzachary4650 Thank You for your information, I am really considering selling my house and moving there...i want to open a small taco spot....
Detroit is my hometown and I believe in it's re-birth...but one point you should know - the home owner taxes are very high. research that..and rent prices in the inner core renovaited areas are also super high. there are alot of things to conside including winter heating costs...they mentioned Hamtramck, where I grew up- the house prices there are way extram expensive and I was also how expensive to rent a flat.- it is also high- over priced....last thing - the winter weather, if you do not like cold extreme weather and snow...then perhaps this is not so good. old saying "Go west young man"
DETROIT GETS A BAD RAP !! IF YOU STAY OUT OF CERTAIN AREAS AT NIGHT . YOU WILL BE OK. NOT THE BEST PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. GREAT RESTAURANTS AND MOST OF THE PEOPLE ARE GREAT . LIVE THERE FOR FITTY YEARS.
I appreciate the enthusiasm for Detroit, however, I think this video is a bit hyperbolic first of all there’s no shuttle to the airport. Second of all buses in schools are horrible and homicide rate is third in the country. However, it’s a beautiful city that is making significant gains.
I was born in Detroit. I left in 2005 when Republicans president started shipping jobs away. It was the best idea I could have made. God made a way for a start over. Don't be fooled about this video. A long way to be a come back.
You should come back for a visit! You can see first hand how its amazingly changed in your 17 year absence. I also was gone for 19 years and so glad I came back. Incredibly city that gets more improved every day!
Not sure when you were last here but there has been A LOT done for the neighborhoods. Tons of blight removal has really helped. The improved economy has really helped the neighborhoods that were teetering on dangerous become a lot more stable. It might not be totally visible to a visitor but to those of us who live here, its a huge difference in live-ability!
Its far better to tell the TRUTH than it is to lie... There's good and BAD in every city and Detroit has more bad than it does good... The city STILL REFUSES to increases its police RESPONSE times for 911 calls to crimes reported... Hey Detroits gonna DO whatever ut wants to DO, and nobody's gonna MAKE them change~So the GOT to change THEMSELVES, at the CITY COUNCIL LEVEL and be WILLING to DO THE WORK to change Detroit's reputation... But damn if they're even INTERESTED in doing that NOW...I see zero willingness to change in the way the city is ran on the part crime enforcement... It is FAR FAR F A R too LAX 👈🏽 Apparently, Detroit "wants it that way" ‼️🤷🏽‼️

I’m looking to do the same! I’d like to be part of the city’s growth
More properties are coming up like yours…This is why I’m moving there
Your property is probably worth 150000 now
nice to see something nice said about the city for a change !

*I now live in Sacramento. I'm from Detroit. I also used to live in Southfield.*
After paying $3.25 each way for public transport in Canada, .75 isnt half bad 👍🏽
@@CitizenEdgeGood for you. But I think that California is on a verge of a crisis. I heard that state is broke, and who knows what is wrong with it.

they have a monorail at the airport but it is not connected to the one downtown
@@alexandernoelker8437 It is only within the terminal. It doesn't even connect to other terminals within the airport.

I live in Detroit and love the west but I’m worried about the water issues they are having out there
I wanna move to Detroit and buy a house ! Grand Rapids is boring the houses are too high ! Any feed back ?
I was surprised nothing about sports teams was mentioned. I’ve lived in Michigan all my life but have never been to the D. I need to change that.

Someone lied to you about republicans sending jobs away sorry
Coming to DMC in 2025 as a RN from Kenya. Looking forward to that.
Ima just tell the truth yall, I live in Detroit.. it’s a nice place to VISIT not live, especially downtown it be lit. 🔥
You've got to live and learn about Detroit right down to the carburetor.

What about seven reasons of NOT to move to Detroit, Michigan? I sure as hell can think of them.
Detroit is very racist towards Indians 🇮🇳
Sounds like a PLAN!
