It's somewhere near Palmer Park in Detroit. It's nowhere near the worst area of Detroit but the color of your skin will have an effect on how safe you will be. The lots tend to be very small. I bike through that area on Woodward Avenue and generally stay on the main streets. Most women would probably not feel safe there. That price may be a bad input. There are actually some pretty nice homes in that general area. There is one square mile of homes built by brick masons. The homes aren't particularly big but have beautiful architectures with very creative brickwork.

TITE, I know this area well, for it was the home of Chrylser before they built the new shopping mall type headquarters and development center in Auburn Hills. The location is just a few minutes out of the center of downtown Detroit. It is a terrible place, period. I used to laugh at the view across from the many entrances to Chrysler. Imagine a dozen cars on blocks or rusted to the hull sitting across the residential street from Chrysler Design. A coworked was mugged at a gas station in this area. He was lucky. They only bashed in his head and took his money. That place would make a nice crack or meth house. GT TH
