Move to The Albert [[formally the Griswold Building) in the gentrified section in Gilbert Park [[ formally Capitol Park) in Gilberttown Detroit.
Are you already earning a middle-class salary [[$45,000+) and have connections for a "guaranteed" job or transferring your business interests? If not, I wouldn't recommend it.
The only incentives there are are for employees who already work downtown AFAIK. Also what is reasonable for you? A price range? A construction quality? Any specific amenities?
Get with a realtor who can give you prices and places to look at. I haven't lived in Detroit but I read a lot about the RE and it's sky high downtown and in midtown. You may end up in the suburbs if you can't afford downtown.
LOL. It's "sky-high" I tell you. Only billionaires can afford downtown these days.
Back to the real world, you can rent in Lafayette Park from $600/month and East Jefferson near downtown from $500 a month, and New Center from $400 a month. Only global business titans need apply...

Although, at those prices the chances of vacancies are pretty low. According to statistics on a Crain's article, the total vacancy rate for apartments in downtown, midtown, and the riverfront is around 3.4%. The expensive apartment units are pretty much the only ones that available, as expected.LOL. It's "sky-high" I tell you. Only billionaires can afford downtown these days.

Contrary to popular belief, there are other decent places to live in Detroit where you don't have to be a business tycoon.
The apartments along Jefferson's "Gold Coast" struck me as interesting if you like apartment living. Close to the nice Riverwalk, too.
I live in East English Village, custom-built pre-war homes 1000 - 2000 sq. ft. mostly. It's pretty nice and very affordable.
I wouldn't live in the suburbs. What's the point? They're like suburbs everywhere. Just stay where you are if that's the case.
Why did you leave Detroit. When did you leave and why do you want to move back?
I think the area north of Woodward and Grand Blvd will be the next boom towns. You can walk to the M1 Rail. And there is hardy Hamtramck, waiting a few more years until its distinct brand of housing becomes as trendy as the shot gun cottages in Corktown.
I agree , the area north of the Blvd is the next hot spot ,I already have tons of people asking about it at work ;-)
