I don’t live in Detroit, but I am from the Detroit. Emotions aside, the objective truths remain the same. If one superimposed the square miles that constitute many southern Metros over large Northern Areas, the Southern Areas would lose their rankings. If you take a 100 square mile radius from every major Northern Metro and compare it with a 100-mile radius from Southern Metros, most Northern Metros would grow significantly in population while most southern Metros will not. That is the objective truth.

I don’t really know if I actually want to see Detroit population boom. I would certainly like to see its economy doing better, and then maybe I could move back. I think the quality of life starts to diminish once you reach around 4 million people. I think that is especially true in the Sun Belt as the infrastructure can’t keep up with the population growth and traffic becomes a nightmare and people spend hours commuting daily.
