The Detroit Metro Area has a lot of really neat things for people to see and do. I grew up in the Chicago area. I lived in the Cleveland area, Akron, Michigan Winston-Salem, Greensboro and surrounding areas, Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids. So I did not live everywhere, but I have seen places enough to speak intelligently, and I know that Detroit has much to offer. Detroit has some things to offer, despite what you hear on the news and people with negative attitudes.
These are the things I miss most if I no longer lived here: 1. Professional Sports Teams: You have the Red Wings (hockey), the Tigers (Major League Baseball), the lions are now winning in football once again, the Pistons (basketball male) and Shock (women's basketball). There are also several Minor League Baseball teams within a short drive, too.
2. Proximity to universities (within 2 hours): University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan State University in Lansing, Michigan Eastern University in Ypsilanti, Wayne State University in Detroit, University of Detroit Mercy, Detroit, Adrian College in Adrian, School Albion at Albion College Alma College in Ohio, Alma Olivet in Olivet, and the University of Toledo in Toledo. In addition, various other small colleges across the city
