More Ideas About Detroit in National and Niche Media

[SWMAP]

I live in Detroit, have always lived in Detroit and, provided I continue to feel relatively secure, I plan to live in Detroit in the future- but having had a terrible, crazy, awful neighbor whose soverign property is only 10 feet away for more than a decade and having put up with neighborhood party noise and too-close car alarms at night, lack of mufflers, car horns sounding pick-ups at 4:00 AM and 6:00 AM for many years, I can see why less density is attractive to most Americans. I long for quiet that my Southwest Detroit neighborhood will never provide because of the streetscape. Perhaps young people don't mind the noise, but i think as they get older they will want more peace and quiet.

One way to deal with this is to buy every house on the block.
