I'm white and just moved here. I'm four houses outside of Grosse Pointe on the east side of Harper. A friend of mine live by Kelly and doesn't have any problems. It does seem that the vast majority of crime is by the Detroit borders. Before I lived here, I lived at 15 mils and Jefferson in Clinton Township near the Harrison Township border. There was a ton of crime there and feel much safer here. Plus, I'm closer to downtown Detroit!
