Let's say a regional or state fund is made to either a) employ more Detroit cops, or b) employ and deploy more Wayne County/Tri-County [a fictitious idea]/State Police within Detroit. Because staffing is finally adequate, the cops are able respond to calls like white on rice.

What happens at this point? Does gentrification accelerate? Do neighborhoods like Grandmont/Rosedale or Morningside immediately stabilize?

To me, it seems like there is a massive desire to revitalize Detroit, and if we could just get enough police out there, we might just see dramatic returns on the investment. Instead, I feel like we're sitting on our thumbs waiting for magic to happen.
