Detroit might, if another Kilpatrick doesn't come up, have its population drop level out at somewhere a little above 600k. The island-ification of the city will continue apace, with new residential developments increasingly clustered around a few neighborhoods, like Midtown, Corktown, etc., while the rest of the city continues to slide into total abandonment and services are withdrawn from a few areas. The new clusters of development will be whiter and richer than the old neighborhoods being abandoned, and there will be tensions between old Detroiters and the new gentrifiers- the gentrifiers will either be totally oblivious to the social frictions, or deny they're a cause of any problems.

Despite those changes, people will still make the same tired jokes about crime and will still visualize Detroit as it was in the '80s.

Serious question: would you welcome OCP and their plans for Delta City?
iirc the bronze Robocop statue was cast a year ago and I'm frustrated that the Mayor's office doesn't seem to like it.
