“…The media narrative in particular has changed since the bankruptcy from generally negative, to mixed, to the quite positive stories appearing in 2015. A variety of sources, ranging from the New York Times, to the Huffington Post, to social media blogs, highlight several themes: the increasing attractiveness of Detroit to young people, particularly entrepreneurs and millennials, because of the low costs of housing, retail and warehouse space, and a market that is wanting for local products and amenities of all types [5,19,20]; the burgeoning artistic scene, fueled by low prices for artist housing and workplaces [1]; increasingly vibrant restaurant, nightlife and theatre options [21]; the attractiveness to tourists of these trends plus the continuing opportunity to tour and photograph "ruins" [1]; increasing levels of foreign investment, particularly from China [4,22]; a gritty, "can-do," and underdog attitude among Detroit residents [22]; the talent pool produced by local universities [24].
