Is Lincoln Park officially a ghetto?

Wyandotte is famous for having either poorly enforced or far fewer zoning laws. Don’t they also have the most bars per capita?

I thought Wyandotte’s claim to fame was a bar AND a church on every block.

Youse need some places to take your cues and ones to take your booze.

Just being old doesn't make it a ghetto. I remember Fischer's for women's clothing and the A&W next to the police station and the skating rink and when Hudson's was the place to go at the Plaza. Maybe most of that is just a distant memory, but so are the places I remember in Detroit. The houses were very similar to those built after WWII in Detroit, mostly 3 bedroom, galley kitchen, small dining area and full basement.
I always did like Wyandotte more, they had more of a downtown area and they had the waterfront.

Downtown Lincoln Park is a mess. Their plaza on the corner of Dix and Southfield is a horrible. At least Sears Dept. Store is still hanging. And more Mexicans and Hispanics are quickly occupying those neighborhoods before black folks do.

Today Bridge has this rather bad news about Lincoln Park and
Ecorse - that these two communities currently have the highest
rates of deaths drug overdose in Michigan.

Reading the article closely does show some positive changes that
might be made.
