    "My neighborhood is busy, there are tons of apartment complex’s and businesses. A lot of restaurants and tons of traffic. It’s I live next to a hospital and I’m close to casinos. It’s not a area to raise kids in."

    "There are multiple sources of transportation in Midtown Detroit such as Uber, Lyft, M1 Rail, bicycles and mobile scooters. These multiple sources of transportation is just minutes away from my current apartment. Which makes it easy to visit local restaurants, attend football, hockey, baseball and basketball games."
