10 Things That Suck About Being From Detroit (2)

5. Whoever designed our city was more than likely to be a maze master. If you’re not from the area or have a GPS, prepare yourself for mass frustration. It’ll probably take you 40 minutes to get to the Walmart that was 2 miles away. And that’s if you’re GPS doesn’t get confused and take you in circles down one way streets.

1. The worst thing about being from Detroit is our reputation. We have a beautiful city with great art and awesome sites to see but we’re always in the news about something tragic. There’s some really great things happening and not many people outside our community get to see it.
