Detroit's border communities
I am going to talk about Detroit's border communities. These cities are what I call the cities that have so-so schools, lower crime rates than Detroit, but higher than most of Metro Detroits suburbs. Would I consider them ideal relocation cities? NO. I believe we have so many great cities in the suburbs is that I would only chose these cities if I could not afford to move to some of the other cities in the area. Are they horrible cities....absolutely not. Would I have clients buy homes in these communities. Yes if they wanted to live there. That is what is real estate is all about. What may be a undesirable community for some may be ideal to others because it is where their family is, where they feel at home. I have sold homes to clients that live in these cities. They are perfectly happy there. That is what makes a city. That is what makes everybody preferences different. Different people have different needs and wants.
I have worked with so many relocation buyers that I have learned what they are looking for and what cities they have not asked to live in. These border cities are not going to be on there list to move to.
Some of these cities are on Detroit's border are:
