I was born and raised in in Detroit and I now live in Arizona. Everything this man is saying is 100 percent true and I go home once a year, I also love Detroit and would love to move back home. Love you Detroit ❤❤
I lived in the Detroit area from 1984 to 2004 and it was an AWESOME time for sports. It started with the Tigers winning. Then back to back Pistons chips, the Lions didn't win anything but I got to see Barrie Sanders entire career including the 2000 yard rushing game. The Red Wings won 3 Stanley Cups. Got to see Probert fight and Yzerman be amazing. U of M was happening with the Fab 5. It all ended with Ben Wallace, Billups and the 2004 NBA ring.
i said this in a last vid but i’m gonna be moving to detriot from san antonio because the jobs up there are better paying for what i do. so you talking about change is really good cs that shows me there would be work for me
It’s the “diversity” for me!!! I’m coming from Phoenix, Az been here all my life I’m so excited to be moving to Detroit thank you for the insight I appreciate it
I moved out of state for a lot of years, and haven't seen downtown Detroit in a long time. I gotta be honest, because of your video, I think I want to go down for a visit. Looks a lot better than I remember it
I’m moving to Detroit next month with 3 of my kids. I love this video I’m trying to find areas to move too. I’m not buying I’m renting just ok areas I have plenty of family from here.
As an AGENT ( even though this was from six months ago and I’m assuming this NEW CITIZEN is here now ) I was expecting you to have them CALL YOU so YOU could point them in the right direction for there NEW ABODE 😒
Good content, the title got me tho, i thought i was gonnna have to throw some popcorn at you at the next home game bro😂😂😂 Very imformative to say the least, we definately are stepping our game up here! From the new fancy hotels, some of the best restaurants, great people. The vibe in the city is on 10..
I am very very interested in moving to Detroit..... and so far you did not say anything that would make me not want to move!... I am an Austrian living Ca right now and I want to get out of here so bad... because In way too overrated, way too overtaxed and way over over-populated Ca I hate the constant never ending heat, its like living in an oven for 7 months of the year, very depressing and if you are lucky maybe you get 2 weeks of some kind of "winter"....but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the COLD!!! ......LOL.....
The issues with Detroit are the public transportation system, the crime, lack of high paying manufacturing jobs, and lack of major grocery store chains. If these can be improved, Detroit will be an awesome place to live. The city is getting nice, especially downtown. Developers need to spread that Renaissance deep into the neighborhoods.
The TRANSPORTATION is an ISSUE because the SUBURBS have NO INTEREST in promoting it because they feel it would only be beneficial to the city of DETROIT… DECADES ago the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT was going to pay % 80 of the cost of a subway system but the outskirts REFUSED to play ball to get it done and AGAIN only a couple years ago the SAME THING HAPPENED when they where considering only a light rail system that would have been cheaper…. This STATE is known for NOT SUPPORTING the most populous city in the state but taking its resources leaving to be only a shell of its former GLORY as it WAS the richest city per capita b4 it’s decline starting in the 50s
@@EdButlerDetroit Is detroit a Veteran Friendly place? I would love to move there. Would you be my realtor? I would love to rent for a year then maybe buy a place.
I passed to detroit twice in my way to Toronto. I liked the Airport and from 2011 I started to follow the developments in the Big D. Detroit I love, a city of champions on their way back
Detroit is rebuilding just like football team but has a long way to go,so many abandon houses or no housese in neighborhood, have to rebuild neighborhoods and make affordable to draw people back,and redo sewers which is outdated, which is major task,i think all cities should be like Detroit and have teams in city not suburbs.
I live here and have dated every race. It isn't a town if you are racist. We get a decent amount of people from other areas of the globe so much so that while I was younger I learned from British people as to which city or region of the isle they are from based on accent. I got so good they often asked me if I was from there not believing an American could have picked that up.
I also heard Detroit have more Arabs than Dearborn but they won't say that out there. I did research & I heard that actually pretty much the Arab & Latino population is right there together second only to the American population in Detroit.........
Trying to move this year. Im from Miami, where I love, love larger cities less conservatives, and want to move where the planet will last thru climate change. How does Detroit compare for folks like me ?😂

Thanks for sharing Jimmie! I lived in AZ for a bit myself. If you can survive those summer months it’s a great place haha
The title initially ruffled my feathers! I am so glad I watched the video, everything you said was accurate. I LOVE MY CITY😊😊😊!
I appreciate you following thru and still watching 🙌🏾 😊
Well done! The approach is over the top. Hope this goes viral. Excelsior!
Thanks brother! I hope so too! I’ve seen others do it, but wanted to put my stamp on it
Glad that Detroit was apart of my life!
Love to hear it!
Nice to hear Hart Plaza is going to be renovated. Great video. 👍
Thanks! Yep they’re finally going to get that water feature back operational!

What a time to be alive! That was a great run for Detroit sports, hopefully we’re in for another one over the next decade!
I have one of the Penthouses at Water Sqaure… when it opens in February, I’ll let you come tour if you’re interested. Let me know!
Would love to see it! Appreciate your behind the scenes tour during construction too 💪🏾
Excellent execution of this video. Spot on

That’s awesome to hear, and I promise you will be astounded walking down there if you’ve been gone more than a couple years.
@@EdButlerDetroit Oh, it's been a stretch. Like 25 years lol
@@jasonvoorhees895 Oh brother it will blow your mind! Haha
The amount of out of state people that don’t realize metro Detroit has some very rich areas.
It’s quite hilarious at this point lol
I’m moving to Detroit next month with 3 of my kids. I love this video
I’m trying to find areas to move too. I’m not buying I’m renting just ok areas I have plenty of family from here.

Though I somewhat disagree, I can appreciate your opinion. Thanks for watching.
Murder rates are the lowest it’s been in 60 years. The jobs there actually pay really well too.

Detroit Lions showing out this season!
Definitely up until yesterday, but we on the way back next week! 💪🏾
I would love to move to Detroit. I am not sure how much income I would need. Is it possible do live in Detroit on 84K a year gross income?
At 84k you could thrive in Detroit. That’s the beauty of it.

Love to hear it! It truly has come such a long way since then.
Moving there from LA and don’t know anyoooone
Don't forget to mention the city income tax, crazy property taxes, and auto insurance rates in the city.
That’s no different from any major city in the country…. We have suburban options if those are issues you can’t get around.
Definitely true very high I work for USAA and Michigan insurance rates and processes are high and lackluster if you’re not used to it

Definitely much more to go, but the city certainly has come a long way. Thanks for watching!
@@EdButlerDetroit it has come a long way👍🏼enjoy watching.
From the 313 and your last reason is spot on!!
IYKYK! 🙌🏾
Are Detroit natives welcoming to people who decide to take advantage of the low home costs?
We are; in Detroit the biggest thing with the people is respect. If you show respect to others, it will be reciprocated.
Yet more investors keep coming to Detroit like it's nobody's business. Yet not much being done to solve the root causes of at risk teens and violence.
With ALL These Positive Changes ...Who Wouldn't ⁉️
Diversity.... if I'm forced to live in the cold I'm feeling pulled to Detroit.
I'm also liking how Michigan is starting to be more pro-democracy.
I live here and have dated every race. It isn't a town if you are racist. We get a decent amount of people from other areas of the globe so much so that while I was younger I learned from British people as to which city or region of the isle they are from based on accent. I got so good they often asked me if I was from there not believing an American could have picked that up.
I also heard Detroit have more Arabs than Dearborn but they won't say that out there. I did research & I heard that actually pretty much the Arab & Latino population is right there together second only to the American population in Detroit.........
🤦🏽♀️
Whats wrong?
Trying to move this year. Im from Miami, where I love, love larger cities less conservatives, and want to move where the planet will last thru climate change. How does Detroit compare for folks like me ?😂
DONT MOVE HERE. !!
