    "You’ll need to drive to most jobs as public transit doesn’t provide the kind of coverage needed to efficiently move into Detroit or the high density employment areas. Most of our neighbors have commutes of 15 minutes or less whether it’s side streets or highways. It’s a 15-20 minute drive into downtown Detroit or 15 minutes into Birmingham or Royal Oak in high traffic times. "
