Ever seen the TV show “After People”? They use Detroit as an example of what happens when towns are abandoned.

Not the exact stat (don’t know where to look for it) but something like of the 150 square miles that make up the city of Detroit, 60 are completely abandoned.

SixDegrees? That about right?

I haven’t heard any actual statistics, but that sounds about right. There are huge tracts of what were once neighborhoods that now look like Beirut after the war. The same is true for areas that were once business districts and industrial centers.

The city is currently enjoying an up and coming industry - Hollywood. We’ve become the favorite spot for directors who want that post-apocalyptic look on a low budget.
