When I visited Detroit back in the mid -80s, we often went to Greektown for dinner and I remember it as a very nice area. At the time I was told that it was one of the safest areas in Detroit, as it was controlled by a Greek "mafia" that basically let it be know the "Don't commit any crimes in our area or else..."

Is there any truth in that? I was skeptical back the and I never really heard of it since. Read another post about greektown and it brought back memories...
