About me:

Um well about me. Probably the most underrated city in the US. Slowly for the past 20 yrs Detroit's image has been goin down, but now things are startin to change. Downtown is officially on point, hoping to be able to take down my arch rival Chicago within the next five years. The superbowl was hosted where??? Yea thats right in the D! Anyway if u got any love for Detroit add me.

Detroit is the largest city in the state of Michigan. The city is located on the Detroit River, north of Windsor, Ontario. Established in 1701 by French fur traders, it is the center of an industrial area in the American Rust Belt.
Today it is known as the world's traditional automotive center and an important source of popular music—legacies celebrated by the city's two familiar nicknames, Motor City and Motown.
