Gorgeous Homes in a Tight-Knit Community of Neighbors, the best in Detroit 5 rating By Anonymous ( Sep 06, 2018) This neighborhood is incredible. The people here are beyond amazing neighbors, I can name the people who live in every house 10 homes in every direction. They look out for you, are there to help when needed, and enjoy spending time with each other on a weekly basis. We do not hav ...Read More e a week go by where we're not spending an evening at at least 1 neighbors home or going out to eat as a block group.

University District in Detroit 4.5 rating By ja57port ( Dec 29, 2016) I've lived in the University District in Detroit for over 30 years and it is a good, safe, diverse & stable neighborhood. The homes are beautiful and well-maintained and there is an active community organization.

The majority of the residents are college-educated and take pride in raising their children in the neighborhood. The neighborhood has attracted new residents the past several years.

More than 90% of school age children in the University District graduate from high school and at least 80% of those children go to college after high-school graduation. I find it interesting that neighborhoods in cities like Chicago, New York, Los Angeles are graded based on what occurs within the boundaries of those neighborhoods and not based on what negative things occur in unsafe neighborhoods in other parts of those cities. (I've visited all those cities). Maybe, whoever comes up with your grading/rating system should find out whats happening in Detroit by visiting the website 'Curbed Detroit'. Read Less
