Detroit's population fell more than 26% from 2000 to 2012 and totals about
700,000—down from almost two million in 1950, according to the census.
An estimated 40,000 structures or land parcels sit vacant or empty.
The city spent $100 million more than it took in every year since 2008, on
average—borrowing the rest.
Some 36% of Detroiters lived below the poverty level between 2007 and 2011,
the census found.
In 2012, Detroit had the highest violent crime rate for a city with more
than 200,000 residents, the FBI says. |
