My uncle used to say, when you drive an hour leaving Detroit, you're still in Detroit. When you drive an hour leaving GR, you are already in your boat, at your cottage, deep in the woods, or swimming in Lake Michigan. Maybe he exaggerated a bit, but if you're familiar with the two areas, he wasn't far off the mark.
If you want, diversity culture good food minimal racism, minimal bs move to the Detroit area the culture, the variety of people, the variety of things the variety of resources you are not gonna find in Grand Rapids if you want Simple very black-and-white moved to the west Grand Rapids segregated a lot of underlying intentions and trust and believe it’s like night and day
Your description of West Michigan is about 30 years old. It's nothing like that now. And just stop with the racism talk. Any time anyone throws out the racism card, it pretty much removes all validity of your comment. I know a LOT of people that came to West Michigan from Detroit to go to college and they just stayed here because it's just better. It's a much nicer place to live and very good schools. The West Side has every type of place you'd want to live. There's good urban housing, suburbs, rural, and diverse and eclectic areas. And you're always less than an hour away from a good beach and the city.
