    This is what happens when you only invest in new construction over city infrastructure, and more on prisons than on education. Your state's young people flee, and the population drops. And everyone flees the city. There are more than enough vacant houses for us to shelter our homeless in SE Michigan now. And people will continue to flee outward defying all logic...and clinging onto the "dream" sold to them by politicians and corporations.

    It's funny that the complaints are things like "talking in the street at night". In many major cities, 24hr street life is seen as a plus. But in pre-planned communities for an idealized middle class which no longer exists, people out at night is seen as a terrible "ghetto" thing...
