that's definitely not just a detroit thing. the inability of many working and middle class black families to build generational wealth through home ownership at the same rates as whites, all because areas that are majority black are simply perceived as less valuable by the "infallible" market, is one of the most stubborn and pernicious aspects of continued structural racism in american society today.
