When I travelled I would always say “Detroit”, even though I lived in the suburbs – it was just easier to explain than Gibraltar, Michigan [[LOL) – now that I live in Detroit, my answer is easy!

One thing that I’ve noticed about people from the Eastside suburbs is that they tend to give you the cross streets [[example: 14 and Gratiot) rather than the city – has anyone else noticed this? When I lived in Gibraltar and Trenton, I would always tell metro Detroiters that I was from Downriver [[but it should be called Upper Lake – lol).
