Yeah, I saw in Bowling for Columbine (I think) that the crime rate there is really high, but freakin' Windsor is right across that body of water, and they leave their fucking doors unlocked! Go figure.

It's because nobody attacks Canadians, so Sarah your safe.
I would hate to live anywhere near Detroit, no jobs, no oppertunity and it's now the poorest city in America. No wonder people living there go all balistic.

Holy crap, I grew up in a Detroit suburb not far from Royal Oak. It was a cool town to hang out in if you were, like, a teenager in the 1980s and didn't like the mall scene. There's vintage clothing stores and a sex shop and (gasp!) a sushi restaurant. But-- dang! I left the Detroit area as soon as I graduated from high school. Even when I return to RO when I'm home visiting my family, it's like, not as cool as it used to be. And, in hindsight, it wasn't even all that cool then.
Suggestion to the folks who are beating the dead horse that is "The Real World": if you really must insist on filming in Michigan, try Ann Arbor. Oh, and don't torture those kids with the winter weather like you did in Boston. That totally sucked.

I grew up around there (and, yes, i left) but the concerts there are aweseome. Everyone is so fucked up. Wouldn't you be if you worked on an assebly line all day putting together cars? Tailgating is more interesting than any reality TV show ever! please, let The Real World die!

I'm from Detroit, the world's rawest, grittiest city. I personally love it, but it is not for the timid. I don't think those Real-Worlders would make it out.
I have to say that I thought the overseas Real World seasons were the two worst ones (London and Paris). They could try Sydney though. Australians are pretty hot.

i hate how everyone thinks that detroit is so bad. it's not like it is the only that has crime. royal oak is a nice city, all they do on the real world now is party anyway, at the same bar, they can do that in royal oak or anywhere i guess.

The Real World has overstayed its welcome. I agree with Perez. They need to just end it.

Or how about, The Real World: Baghdad, or Kabul, or Tehran?
That would end the show pretty quick.

I grew up in Detroit and it was some of the best days of my life. That was in the late 70s early 80s. Right before all the gang violence and stuff.

Ginger-I grew up in Michigan and you are soooo right. It is NOT for the timid and Royal Oak is hardly Detroit. Let them meet Kwame *shudder* and see wtf the Real World thinks about Detroit...

I love real world. Some seasons are better than others. But they are running out of places to film.

I don't think anyone would dispute Detroit's grit or that it has rich parts, but that doesn't change the fact that after you get tired of exploring urban decay and sterile suburbs it is really boring. Give me DC any day, Detroit is just pathetic.
