There are portions of Detroit proper that are still nice, with beautiful old homes that are still in good shape. Even Gary has a couple of decent areas. I’d much rather be in one of those places than homeless.
I voted homeless in a nice city, not for me but because that’s what I see. Check out coastal towns in Southern California that have a fair share of people with no fixed abode. It’s usually the younger set, who see it as a temporary vacation on the streets. The older guys are smart enough to accept local assistance programs.
Personally of course it’s a moot point. While financially responsible for myself since the age of 18, I chose to study and work hard. So at worst I might live near a bad area but never within. But I do feel bad for those with true physical and mental disabilities.

Eh, if I'm not mistaken, the homeless in those so called world class cities are usually situated in the worst parts of the city. Either way, I'd pick the hood, because at least in the hood you are going to get some damn good food and drink and entertainment.

How are you supposed to afford or access any of that if you're homeless?
You probably couldn’t afford to live in a nice suburb of metro Detroit.
You realize it’s a top 15 metro in the country with all four major sports, and a hub of technology and engineering right?
