  I never expected this, but it’s happened many times:

  I live in a small town and my daughter just graduated from college in Detroit. When I tell people where she went to school, many of them are like “OMG REALLY?” “Weren’t you scared for her?”

  I just tell them “Not at all! It’s a really nice city, and she’s thinking of moving back out there!”

  Which is true, and it blows their fucking minds.

      No, but there’s a few around here under 100k

      Those tend to owe a lot of back taxes and need significant renovations

        Are we talking, like, a few thousand dollars? That’s still cheaper than big.city rent for a year
