Detroit politicians weren't much of a help with the image issue. As for Millennials moving in, I think Detroit had an urban pioneer type program that offered houses at very low prices. Get the house for next to nothing but you had to make it liveable in a year's time. Where I live we are becoming pre-Detroit. A cycle of tax increases to make up for lack or weak commercial development is setting the stage for failure. The school system has become a money pit and the people coming in are low income so tax revenue doesn't keep up with expenses. No city can rebound if the residents are not creating businesses to replace those that fail or move out and that is what happened to Detroit and is happening here now.
