Detroit was ranked No. 1 Most Miserable City to live in by Forbes Magazine http://realestate.msn.com/Buyi ng/Article_forbes.aspx?cp-docu mentid=6171960&GT1=35000

with Flint ranking No. 3. I was thinking about moving back to Chicagon - Boston area as housing is so cheap, but is crime really that bad? Would we be risking our lives by living in the city??

Most of the people I know that left Detroit did so not because of violent crime, but the nonstop property crime. It's very demoralizing to have your car or garage broken into on a regular basis. It's even more demoralizing to know that the police don't have the resources or the inclination to even respond to simple property crimes either.

I'm not miserable. How about you?
