I lived on Leavitt for a number of years. In that time my home was broken into and I was robbed at gun / knife point multiple times. Every time this happened the police pointed out two buildings that were public housing as the likely source. I tend to believe them as well as the CAPS officers who agreed.

I am a Detroit native so I hate the idea of ghettos but I would prefer to live around people of similar means / financial ability. Public housing introduces inorganic problems with equality and perceived equality.
