There are some incredibly rich and affluent communities with very safe neighborhoods in some of the "suburbs of Detroit". Metro Detroit is a much larger area than Detroit itself and there are many types of communities to choose from.
Random interesting trivia...but the city of Dearborn in that area is home to some of the largest number of Arabic speaking individuals. There will even be signs in the downtain area written in Arabic instead of English. It's not a city I would recommend to live in due to safety, but it's a random interesting blub I wanted to word vomit out lol.
Winters in Michigan can be absolutely gorgeous when there is a fresh snow...but unfortunately much of winter is just freezing, brown, ugly, and incredibly dark and depressing (less sunlight hours in Northern winters due to the position on the globe). Subjectively, winter seems to last around 5 months out of the year. It starts late October to early November and lasts until mid April.
Thanks for the info!
