I agree. I was there in 2003 visiting my brother in the suburbs and the thing I noticed at the "better" parts of the Detroit city proper was sealed windows on buildings. It's simple to extrapolate on what the really bad neighbourhoods look like...

Yeah, but doesn't it seem odd that nobody is trying to rehab anything to make some money? If its a shooting gallery I guess it wouldn't make sense to do that, but abandoned homes at rock-bottom price, I would think that SOMEBODY would smell money..It must be a war zone.
