I may be "dumb as a stump", but I do have the ability to see that the Pointes are A. More diverse than the East Side, 2. Hugely attractive to African Americans with means and C. Getting more diverse all the time.
Places like GPP are, for Michigan standards, rather progressive. They're trying to decriminalize marijuana. They have schools where no race is the majority. They're walkable, and bikeable, and getting better all the time. They're attracting all types of families. Good luck with any of this in the prairies across Alter.
And why wouldn't they try and limit rentals? Rentals generally degrade property values in homeowner communities. On what planet would a municipality have a policy of trying to degrade their tax base?
