Fire insurance rates on the rise Detroit

[David L]

I just read that Detroit's fire protection rating has been downgraded causing home insurance rates to skyrocket. One more expense that makes owning a home too expensive for me in Detroit. While I'm at it, when is the absurdly high property tax problem going to be resolved? The reassessment process the city is undertaking won't be finished until 2017. The state municipal taxing system needs a major overhaul. What is taking the state legislature so long to act? And finally, I drive a decent car. enough said.
