I’ve been obsessed w/ migration and the Black exodus from Detroit has been at the center of it. This @j_e_n_a_b piece adds a new layer: 3/4 Detroiters are single, making it the most single large city in the U.S. costing the avg person $11k more annually. bridgedetroit.com/detroit-single…

@AdamLMahoney @j_e_n_a_b @drkrismarsh check this out! I wonder how it intersects with your work.
@AdamLMahoney @j_e_n_a_b I also think the car dependency in general in Detroit makes it an expensive place to live. Sure rent is maybe 10% cheaper than in a real city but once you factor in car payment, gas, and exorbitant insurance you’re really not saving any money
