What was more disturbing:
“The number of abandoned houses in Detroit is more like 12,000. Encompassing an area of over 138 square miles, Detroit has enough room to hold the land mass of San Francisco, Boston, and Manhattan Island, yet the population has fallen from close to 2 million citizens, to most likely less than 800,000. With such a dramatic decline, the abandoned house problem is not likely to go away any time soon.”
More like an abandoned city. Saddens me that a once industrial city w/opportunity has been reduced to this condition. Why wouldn’t a big company take advantage of the dire situation and set up shop on the cheap and get people back to work in our country.
