I live in downtown Detroit, don't drive, walk, bike, take public transit or Lyft everywhere (but mostly walk). And honestly love it. Feel free to ask me anythin

  How’s it been in downtown lately? I know it’s had a revival over the years, but I’ve heard that over the past few months (especially after COVID hit) that the crime/murder rate has been rising. This at least according to some police officers I know.

    I can only speak to downtown, and it has been more sedate but I haven't felt less safe. I don't eat indoors so the recent weather change has meant more time at home. My favorite thing about Detroit winter, the skating rink, is going up right now (probably the only thing I'll do outside till spring 2021) But, downtown isn't the same as the other neighborhoods, I don't think I'll be going farther than a mile from home for a while

    There is zero murder problem in downtown detroit. I used to live in Lafayette park (adjacent to downtown detroit) in a coop building with a doorman next to a several hundred acre park with a view of the river. I moved out just as a former US senator was moving into my floor.
