You're denying the unique growth of West Village by lumping it in with "downtown". It's not even considered part of greater downtown Detroit (which technically ends at Lafayette Park). The Villages did this without all the development of downtown. In fact, the entire East Jefferson corridor has taken on a life of its own and will likely be the new Woodward in the not-too-distant future.

Areas near downtown Detroit are the ones being transformed. Outlier areas in the city are still blighted and low income. Nothing much has changed in the suburbs, although the north suburbs are attractive.
