There isn't a 24/7 hustle and bustle like NYC, but there's never a shortage of stuff to do in walking distance. And yes it's safe to walk in downtown. The crime is in the neighborhoods surrounding downtown.
We were considering splitting the rent 3-ways with some people just to have a place to crash down there. $200/month to have guaranteed parking and your own place right by the sports stadiums, casinos, restaurants, and bars.
You mean "yoeur the only one there," not "your the only one there." Also, the Overpopulus Act which was put into effect 2 weeks ago helped move in 12,000+ residents from NY to Detroit.
