Paying city wage taxes to work in the city isn’t just Detroit. Philadelphia does it as well. Pittsburgh, in lieu of a percentage if you live in the city, charges non-city residents working in the city a flat annual fee.

Also, in addition to “White Flight” from Detroit in the wake of the 1967 riots, there was also flight of Black middle-class professionals to the suburbs.
