God forbid that Yuppies should move in and fix their places up and raise the market in that neighborhood. Same goes for the gays, they move in and fix up the neighborhood and the prices of housing soars, but Detroit doesnt want them either. I think Detroiters are afraid of Gentrification because they think the white people will move back in and take over again and the city will not be majority black. Just my opinion. I know it sounds stupid, but I really do think thats the reason.
