i lived in oakland county, the suburbs north of detroit and i would say that some of them are in bad shape though, people are starting to leave their houses to the banks, and alot of businesses are shiutting down. my family was really fortunate and were able to sell our house ( in rochester hills) after only being on the market 3 months (2009). alot of my friends that go to umich and msu, are having to come back and go to community college since their dads who all worked for car companies got laid off.
my dad used to work at the chrysler HQ in auburn hills, and when i went back for thanksgiving i met him for lunch there and the building was practicly empty, cubicles empty, and the people that were left and still working looked like there were on pins and needles.
