    "Decent road conditions and I-75 was actually pretty smooth coasting. Was very surprised as I just moved back from Southern California in the past month which has/had been a major adjustment getting used to the work commute from Detroit to Westland where the roads are terrible ironically (in the vicinities of Westland, Taylor, and Inkster - worse then road conditions in NORTHWEST Detroit proper to be more specific even)."

    "I wouldn’t necessarily say unique but more so separate from the rest. The diversity in this area is there, but not as “free” as you’d see in Ferndale/ Royal Oak area. It would be nice to have more. This city is a place to raise a family, walk the dog(s), or invite your neighbor over for a BBQ. It’s safe, clean and quiet. "
