Pontiac is not exactly the ""desired"" place for much these days.
The media pegged it as Oakland County's poorest city.

"What's left is a city that has been steadily losing population since the 1970s, falling from more than 85,000 to less than 60,000. Of those residents, 35.7% live in poverty, according to census data. More than half of the city's children are in poverty. The median household income is $28,505."
