Chances are if you aren't from the area (well, even if you are) you've heard less than welcoming commentary about Detroit. I'm here to inform you Detroit is making a comeback (hipsters collect)! The streets of Midtown are busier than they've been in decades. One of my favorite parts about Detroit is their lack of signs and abundance of paintings (AKA Graffiti) decorating the city with character. The city is beating bankruptcy and therefore doesn't carry the arrogant hustle and bustle of most cities. Detroit is humble, kind, and perseverant.
Detroit was once a beautiful city and is slowly making a come back. Detroit has very unique and rich architecture throughout the city. Some of the older Detroit streets are still paved with bricks which where made by hand in Flint, MI. Detroit is a beautiful place to live if you are a young adult who hasn't started and family nor has any plans to start one while living here. Detroit has been plagued with violence for the last 80 or so years. Detroit is a tough city to live in. I love Detroit because without it I wouldn't be the person that I am today. Detroit has some of the most unique entrepreneurs around! I am a product of Detroit. I am just one of the many roses growing through it's concreted cracks. I am Detroit!
Detroit is a very beautiful city. From the many museums, restaurants, parks, and wonderful organizations that exist in my city. Growing up in Detroit has never been boring. There's always something fun to do. The restaurants have many cultural foods which are amazing. This year, the Women's March Convention is being held in Detroit, which was chosen because of the many great resources that exist here. The people who live in Detroit are so nice, and feel like family instantly. However, I simply wish that Downtown Detroit wasn't the only part of the City that is constantly being renovated and cherished. There are so many more parts of Detroit that people need to learn about!
