Where we were was pretty close to Birmingham, which is a nice area. Get farther away though, and it gets pretty bad. It's a strange area actually. Right next to one of the wealthiest parts of Michigan, kind of ghetto but kind of nice. Large black population there (note: I have NOTHING wrong with black people... it's just a fact) with low price homes around, but the theatre we were at has valet parking, and most of the cars there are Cadillacs and Mercedes with huge wheels... my car didn't really stick out.
