Morningside (Alter-Warren Ave.) is relatively quiet for a neighborhood with such a low income (high median age helps). Brightmoor is a notable exception - everyone on the west side and west suburbs knows Brightmoor by name, and it always was a lower income area. A developer bought the land outside Detroit to elude Detroit's building codes, and sold hundreds of little shacks. Detroit later annexed it since leaving it an exclave was not an option then.

I have never been to Detroit, but I hear it making a comeback. Downtown, according to a friend of mine who lives in Royal Oaks, is becoming a wonderful place to be. There is a lot to do in downtown Detroit and all the sports venues are there as well. I grew up hearing all about the demise of a once great city. What happened to Detroit is unspeakable at least. The good people who lived and worked in the Motor City didn’t cause the place to crumble. The big three auto makers and a very corrupt city government are the main causes. I have a lot of hope that Detroit’s population will figure out a way to make the city a good and safe place again where anyone, no matter who, can walk down the street and feel safe again. Good luck to you, Detroit!

Born and raised in Detroit. I've seen the decline over 4 decades. Property, education system..... I chose NOT to buy a home there for that reason. Not understanding why Detroit's residents watching this are in such denial. I dare any of you who don't already live in these listed neighborhoods (and are therefore USED TO it) - and yes these neighborhoods DO exist, plus many more - to walk thru even in daylight and make it thru safely or fearlessly. You do adapt, I did. The neighborhood names used are old skool titles, though we usually use cross street names (which doesn't name a neighborhood, it names major cross streets) I've heard of many of these hoods. Maybe due tomy age. 😏 Detroit used to be sooo beautiful throughout. Shocked Osborn neighborhood wasn't listed. Maybe because half is decent, half is a ghost town. They only care to improve areas immediately seen by visitors, like Downtown, New Center, etc. I expect ALL if these hoods ti experience an influx. They're certainty primed for building new properties. Gentrification? Maybe. But gentrification in the D ain't nearly as big a problem as it's crime, predatory property owners and the political abuse of power resulting in continued poverty and it's poor education system. Its sad. It's criminal.

YEA BRIGHTMORE in the late 1940's and the 1950's!!! I was there in those days...On Blackstone 3 doors from Fenkell Avenue, and right around the corner from the $.25 Saturday afternoon movie with a gillion noisy kids. Anybody remember "THE CANDY BAR" next door to the pool hall on Fenkell and Burt Road where all the Guys went, while we girls settled into the Candy Bar's soda fountain counter and sipped a nickel coke piled with ice with a straw. We got all the latest news and gossip from each other and "promised" never to tell anybody. When the guys were tired of shooting pool, they would meander into the Candy Bar to check out the bevy of beautiful young Brightmore girls as we sat and checked out the guys. Elsie was the German lady who owned the "C B" along with either her husband or brother...his name is not remembered by me. Remember the beer parties at Eljia Howell Park over near Redford Pioneer Cemetery on Telegraph. I didn't know it at that time, but many of my relatives were buried there since the early 1800's. They were the Pioneers of Brightmore, and through the Redford Historical Society I was told I am eligible to to be buried there because I am a daughter of pioneer, as long as I buy a plot. My Father is there, along with his third wife, and Aunt Gladys and her family are there, grandpa daniel, and great grandpa daniel is there, and so many more of the Ball family in the ground. I think the cemetery was established in 1837, but can't remember to be absolutely certain. Regarding the kids I knew from the "C B" back then, I remember so many names and faces, but I hesitate to use the names in case they wouldn't want such a public forum, as old as they are, and still living here. lf you are still around, I suppose this site would be fine with a note or two on this site about Brightmore and the old days of 69 years ago and wouldn't be a bad idea. Sincerely, Bobby B. .

He did not make those neighborhood names up. About ten years ago, someone drew a map of Detroit neighborhoods. Some are historical names for Detroit neighborhoods - usually better neighborhoods, like Rosedale Park, Green Acres, Russell Woods, Indian Village and Sherwood Forest. Neighborhoods between showcase Detroit and ordinary Detroit are known by residents but not by people who don't live in them - East English Village and Woodbridge are examples. Brightmoor is the only neighborhood known by name as a disadvantaged neighborhood. It's a special case. It was built with small shacks, just outside the Detroit city limits, so they could build cheap houses that the city of Detroit never would have approved of. Detroit got Brightmoor when it annexed a much larger area in 1926 - Detroit hasn't annexed any more since.

We bought a house there for 11K in 2010. Totally safe neighborhood. No one killing anyone. We just bought a much larger house 6 doors down, brick cape cod, 2500 sq ft plus basement for 82 K.

There will be no recovery until American workers learn how to exist on third-world starvation wages. Our corporate masters have demanded that, and their legislative lackey's (formerly our legislature) will never bite the hand that feeds them to affect change.

The problem with Detroit isn’t what people generally assume. It’s the problem of the culture people chose to follow. 1. The most precious commodities traded are hard drugs. 2. The many chose not to be presentable, or properly educated instead they want to wear Jordans and act like ‘thugs.’ 3. Residents commonly scream victimhood and accuse critics of racism for bringing up facts about their lack of existential integrity. I’m sure this video was made by a ‘racist.’ 4. The young people ( under 18) are busy having babies without any means of income except for welfare. That in a nutshell is the problem of Detroit. The ‘elephants’ in the room that very few Detroiters want to address. This is not a problem of race, color, or national origins but that of the culture people select to follow. ~ former business man from SW Detroit.

Then we moved to South Central L.A. right when the gang shit and crack epidemic really took off and then a few years after that we settled in Compton. After high school i moved to Salem Oregon, lived there 20 years and since then the last 4 years i been back and forth a few times from Salem and Wyoming, where i currently live. I been many places and have seen a lot, especially living in 2 of "worst" ghettos in America. Despite what those places have become, its still home and will always appreciate what i experienced and learned growing up and living in those places. Yeah those places in Detroit are grimy as fuck, but remember there good hard working people everywhere. A lot of people do make bad choices and end up on drugs and homeless, but a lot of people end up like that cuz bad luck and tough breaks. Take it easy a bit on the locals, and the neighborhoods in general. Those people never was owners of car companies and never flown a plane to Columbia and back filled with cocaine. Real Talk ._._
