Craigslist ads listed for Pittsburgh. If someone enjoys screwing with people you may want to send an e-mail asking if it safe to stay in Detroit:

http://detroit.craigslist.org/ vac/127542577.html
City of Royal Oak description:
Royal Oak small, safe, thriving town with a collection of coffee shops, restaurants, bars, bookshops and boutique shops. It is a place for both day time shopping and dining as well as evening dining, socializing and drinking. Royal Oak boarders the city of Ferndale which has equal appeal but a busier main street. The two towns are the center of social life outside of an interesting but shady/dangerous downtown detroit.

That's what jumped out at me. I figure someone may get a kick out of playing the role of tourist and asking if they should consider staying in detroit just to see the hate come spewing.

-- is just 20 minutes from Ford Field in downtown Detroit and is in a safe neighborhood (safe neighborhood is in bold)

Why stay in Detroit? We have a beautiful home for you in West Bloomfield one of the most elegant Westside suburbs. Minutes away from downtown, but the safety and beauty make it feel far away. This is where we Detroiters like to live!

since when is West Bloomfield "minutes away" from Downtown? Last time I drove out there it took me 50 minutes... Minutes, yes. JUST minutes? hell no!

Where's the harm. Send an e-mail stating you are out of town and ask about their impressions of Detroit and the relative safety of downtown.

Nothing more than to see the hate and lies that will be spewed. No harm done to anyone.

I'm not saying we have to be mean about it...just a friendly reminder they don't have to bash Detroit in order to capitalize on the Super Bowl.

Oh yeah? W. Bloomfield has all the pretense and boorishness of Birmingham with none of the class. I reckon the Detroiters prefer to live in Detroit.

Honestly, if people are dumb enough to rely on anonymous postings from craigslist to dictate where they lodge in a city they've never before visited, it's probably best they stay in W. Bloomfield and Birmingham. I'd rather not have to deal with them in the city. You the know the type. They'll make certain to pack their Oakley wraparound shades and white Reeboks. They might even wear their sweaters tucked in. And it should come as no surprise (or elicit a semi-rabid response) that someone who spends NO time in Detroit, would sell out the city on craigslist for their own personal gain. Their parents probably dumped pickup truckloads of construction waste in the city a generation before them.

Who cares about these haters...all a bunch of racist assholes. If Detroit was full of poor whites or mostly whites no one would be saying "safe"

Wait a second....I think I'm white. Also, by the time all the bills are paid, sometimes I'm poor. What should I do?
