Its a long road and there are definite no go areas but GOP leadership at the state level has worked wonders.

There’s a solid pro 2nd amendment police chief who is doing a good job and encouraging the people to arm themselves and bring the crime rate down. (appointed by the emergency manager)

They have their first white mayor in Decades. He’s a democrat but is relatively pro business.

Big money guys like Dan Gilbert and Roger Penske are doing a lot of heavy lifting with their own money.

I’be heard that Detroit is coming back. This has been the meme for decades. However, it may be actually happening now. Downtown has become unrecognizable to me. Apartments are literally 99% occupied downtown. A lot of building going on, and Detroit is becoming a monopoly board. Wish more of it could have saved. There are blocks and blocks and blocks vacant. Most other blocks with building are empty. Take a Google Earth tour.
