I am picking up on troll-like readings from this one. Beware.

You were in East Hills? What part? Near what intersections?

Most Grand Rapidians couldn't even tell you where East Hills is, so I'm just curious..

I should go tell these people to stop driving around then.

Went to eat lunch at Marie Catribs and just saw the neighborhood listed on a form outside the store.

Hello. I am moving to Flint from Georgia. My family and I were looking at a home in the Kettering U/Flushing area. It is not too far from Mott park. Do you know about this area and how safe it is? Any details will help. Thanks.

You must have visited in an alternative dimension where everything is opposite.

Lapeer most definitely belongs. If you've ever been there, you realize Lapeer is what people are referring to when they say "Michissippi."

LOL.....hardly! Lapeer isn't all that bad as you'd make it out to be. Perfect? Nope.....

Cities not to live? Detroit, Highland Park, Flint, Pontiac, Saginaw, Benton Harbor... We have our fair share of crime ridden ghettos and poor areas in Michigan.
