It looks like this year I may have to go to Farmington Hills, Detroit this year, for personal reasons.
I have never been to the US, let alone Detroit. Though, I hear it is a bit dangerous to say the least?
So tell me Sup Forums, what pragmatic advice can you give me a brit, in going to the US, and Detroit? Which areas should I avoid? What things will offend the people there? Will I definitely get shot on my trip? Should I just stay in my hotel and where I have to be the entire time?
Any places on the map where these hoods are? What's the city centre like?
Jayden Butler
If you are really worried then stay home because you're to big a pussy to be here and we don't want you.
Benjamin Gomez
Are you fucking kidding me? Farmington Hills is nowhere near Detroit and its one of the wealthiest upper class cities in the entire State. Gtfo scared ass.
Parker Jackson
Farmington Hills is a good 10/15 miles from any truly worrisome ghetto. If you find yourself East of Telegraph avenue, lock your doors. You should be able to buy large spring loaded knives at most gas stations even out near Farmington, why not indulge in that strange luxury so you can have some insurance. Niggers will commute from the hood to Livonia at the furthest to break into houses or cars, but like I said, anything west of Telegraph/Inkster road is generally safe. Also, South of 8 mile of course too, though I find Telegraph to.be the most noticeable dividing line between true ghetto and suburbia.
Nathaniel Murphy
go wherever the fuck you want bro. these american pussies are all talk and no fucking action. bunch of cardboard cutout cunts the lot of them in these "hoods".
t. white Bong in Michigan right now.
Alexander Torres
You should explore and hang out in rural areas desu. Cities are gay.
Luis Williams
Farmington Hills is nice bro. I'm there right now, the black people around here actually have jobs. Even downtown Detroit isn't bad around the sports arenas and restaurants. The only sketchy as fuck areas are the ghettos in actual Detroit, not metro detroit and unless you are really dumb you can tell which streets not to go down by the shuttered buildings and what not. Unless you are a place you don't belong Detroit is nowhere near as shitty as Chicago has become
Mason Wilson
This. Also, nobody fucks with you unless you show obvious signs of fear. Mind your own damn business and dont make friends, and you will be fine in Detroit.
Liam Reed
If you want to see something hilarious start at like 19 and John R and head south to like 7 mile and watch how it gradually gets poorer and poorer and poorer as you get closer to Detroit.
Nathaniel Russell
Yes goy, it is HILARIOUS to see your fellow countrymen living in squalor and destitution. Good goy!
Sebastian Jones
I didn't think my first trip to your country would be Detroit, but as I said, I MUST go to Detroit. I don't really have an alternative. Sounds safe then. I'm not sure about the knife option, but thanks for the rest of the advice. lol Another time, certainly. Again, sounds pretty good then. Sound sensible advice, cheers. I'll pass thanks lol
Benjamin Johnson
What about taxi options?... What's the UBER service in detroit going to be like? I'm going to have to rely on taxis all the time.
Jaxson Turner
While I'm here, I might as well do some sightseeing. What do you recommend?
Alexander Gonzalez
the henry ford
Hunter Brooks
I've looked it up; looks great. I will definitely try to check that out.
Nolan Martin
Heritage park is nice
Gabriel Cook
Just use uber or lyft. Check out the Detroit Zoo, it's pretty fantastic even in the winter.
Where's that? I'm not a huge fan of zoos. But I've got the Uber and Lyft apps now, thanks. I don't really have any problem with blacks per se. If they are violent, then of course I do.
Zachary Jenkins
First of, our niggers are much more niggery than yours.
Buy a $10 knife, and pull it quickly on any nigger that looks at you the wrong way, or tries to talk to you.
Beware of niggers in groups. niggers get niggerier the more niggers around around.
Jose Brown
It’s on Farmington road between 10 and 11 mile. Pretty nice trails there, you might see some deer
Grayson Jones
Cheers. If I have time left over, I'll give it a go.
Adam Phillips
3 rules to live by in Detroit & you will be good.
1.Don’t buy Drugs 2. Don’t sell Drugs 3. If you don’t know anybody in your immediate surroundings personally shut your mouth & mind your business
Jack Flores
& don’t be too worried about the Black folks ..if you happen to be in their “hood” areas they will interpret your white presence as 1 Of 2 things ..1. You have something to do with the police 2. Your a potential customer...refer back to my 3 rules again
Josiah Ramirez
don't come to complete stops at stop signs in the city, traffic lights another thing. seriously, cops understand this and won't fuck with you. roll yr windows up and lock your doors when driving thru the ghettos - it's not too hard to avoid them, but if you insist on sight seeing this shithole, please be careful. if you are in any car that isn't a piece of shit the dogs will stare and menacingly approach you. carry a fucking gun, at least a knife . the outskirts are nice tho
Easton Barnes
Canadian here. I've been to Detroit lots of times and have friends who commute there daily with Canada plates on their cars. Never had a problem. Problems arise after midnight around liquor stores.
can confirm. if you find yourself off the main roads and things start to look dark, you are encouraged to ignore normal traffic laws. in a lot of places the stop lights aren't even on and haven't been for years
Anthony Gomez
Greet every person with an open heart and as you would a guest in your own home = No problem.
Walk around pulsing out fear and you will attract something to experience that physically on one level or another. You're safe user if you know you're safe. You're not if you believe you're not.
Hudson Edwards
I can assure you, I will definitely not be getting involved with drugs. Your third point is common sense, but I can understand some might fail to even contemplate that. I wouldn't last more than 5 minutes in a hood. I'll avoid them like the plague. I presume the taxi drivers I'll be using will be 'Detroit-smart' enough to get me to my destination alive. But don't make eye contact and look ahead is what I'm getting from you also. Well, or course. Doing that is going to get you trouble. Yeah, I've seen his videos. This is partly why I've made this thread. Again, I'm sure the taxi drivers will be cognizant of this.
Liam Powell
I haven't been to Detroit, but I have been to Memphis - so the same rules apply, and I received shock, awe, and safety instructions from people in Knoxville and Nashville when I told them I would be traveling through Memphis and stopping in Memphis.
I was told to enter Memphis on a Sunday morning at 6 a.m., go to Graceland at 9 a.m., and be out of the city of Memphis by noontime on Sunday, and that I would escape problems.
I followed those instructions and I am still alive. Only time in my life I have seen hotels hide coin-operated Coke machines and vending machines inside locked caged rooms outside the hotel.
Michael Walker
Your first piece of advice I'll water down a lot, and only if I'm peacefully approached first. Second point, I agree. I know this is true as where I live it's the exact same. You are not helping this British person raised on the stereotype that the US is a dangerous place! lol. I can't imagine anywhere here in the UK there being such phenomena as that there is there with the Coke machines! lol.
Jack Morgan
naive fool. overlay detroit's black map with the crime map and notice the damn near 1.0 correlation.
>If they are violent, then of course I do. They're only violent if they think they can walk away with it. >ID I'd probably stay away from hoods. youtube.com/watch?v=vMWHJDr8fxE It's comfy to me though.
Dominic Watson
I have to admit, that is a pretty convincing point you make there. As a civic nationalist this makes me uncomfortable lol. But at least they're not muslims? right???
Joshua Martinez
As an American with 28 years of diversity experience, I have the unique ability to tell you exactly how to survive your time in Detroit Michigan.... you go straight to W Chicago and livernois ave, and book yourself a room... nicest place in Detroit.
Matthew Lewis
Wait til you see bars like that on people's houses in Detroit. And all our homeless people sleeping under bridges in the freezing cold. It's definitely a shock to see and pretty sad that instead of helping other people in our own country we see assholes like Jeff Bezos give 30 million dollars to illegals so they can go to college.
Nolan Sullivan
I live right next to Farmington Hills (Southfield) and it's a pretty good area desu. I wouldn't worry about getting shot unless you go south of 8 Mile which is way out of your way.
Blake Nguyen
What's the centre like?
Matthew Sanders
Farmington hills here. Nice suburb. Literally no worries m8. There's a nice walking park on Farmington road called heritage Park. Also another smaller one a mile north.
Carter Sullivan
>So tell me Sup Forums, what pragmatic advice can you give me a brit, in going to the US, and Detroit?
Don't. It's full of nigger.
Ethan Peterson
The city centre in Southfield? It's pretty nice actually. The parking is a little annoying but if you're using Uber there aren't any issues
Anthony Hill
Take a trip north of the bridge and see the pictured rocks. The great lakes are also good for swimming.
As to your main point FH is a great place. The Southeastern region of your map is where you have to watch out for. Remember to stay north of 8 mile road and you're good
Jayden Rivera
You can rent a Maven download the app rent a luxury Lorrie.
Ryder Murphy
Downtown Detroit is cool and pretty safe. Much improved in the past decade. Most of everywhere else in Detroit sucks. Dearborn has a ton of muslims. Good food though. Inkster and Redford can be pretty noggy. Farmington Hills is fine.
Tyler Edwards
You know Farmington and Farmington hills are very well of the downtown Farmington area is like something out of a Norman rockwell painting. Very compy. many companies have there quarters there.
Jaxon Rivera
Farmington hills is like the golf capitol of the world to give you an idea of the locals. Very well off luxury car drivers with big houses.
Blake Adams

Oliver Ortiz
Go to the gun range you limey bastard. When in Rome.
Hudson Foster
>This
Christopher Nelson
I live in the area. Farmington hills is between a wealthy part and the hood. If you want to go out Birmingham is the place to go. I try to stay out of Detroit city in general. I know people that had cars stolen or robed in the city but never killed. I think you'll be safe.
Luis Stewart
Farmington Hills is whitetopia
Jaxon Hughes
This is the best description I've seen lol
Julian Rivera
Your going to see Asians but don't worry there Hindus and there engineers lol. No pakis no bengalis.
Aiden Bell
Hope you're flying Delta, KLM, Air France, or Virgin Atlantic. The terminal for the SkyTeam airlines in Detroit is MUCH nicer.
The one for other airlines is okay but it isn't as nearly as beautiful nor does it have as many good food options.
Oh, and if you're renting a car, just be aware that you have to get on a bus and then they drive you to your rental car company. It's not really "onsite".
Uber is alright, but why wouldn't you rent a car?
Jaxson Thompson
1) downtown, corktown and midtown Detroit are safe and surprisingly vibrant with good restaurants/bars/things to do. Anyone saying otherwise is either a pussy, lying or stupid 2) outside of those areas, I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else in the city proper, besides Belle Isle, mexicantown or west village 3) the Detroit metro area is FAR bigger than just the city proper 4) Ferndale, Royal Oak and even downtown Farmington have plenty of good food/entertainment options 5) Farmington Hills is about as suburban as it gets, nothing wrong with that though
Nathan Sullivan
if you fly out of detroit metro, be careful with tsa and the cops, they fuck with white people.
Camden Green
I flew in/out of DTW a ton in 2013 and never had an issue with security there, although I had TSA Precheck.
Christian Rivera
DEARBORN E A R B O R N
Blake Collins
kek, this must be Fordson high school I bet. Another pro tip: anyone who thinks Dearborn is bad or dangerous has literally never been there. Easily the nicest inner suburb (besides the Grosse Pointes, obviously) and the Arabs are chill
Robert Watson
i fly to ohio via metro. i've been fucked with almost every time. once while waiting for a flight, 2 black cops were guarding the doors inside the security area that leads outside. i asked if i could go outside to have a cigarette and come back inside, and they said yes. when i tried to get back in, they said i had to clear security again. i barely caught my flight and had to be driven to the flightline to board. tsa has fucked with me every time.
Hudson Scott
>this Ohio tier intelligence level Lmao
Jaxson Richardson
You can tell the areas that are shit by looking at them. Run down etc. sort of like shitty areas in any other country. You can just ignore black people and most of them will just go on about their day.
Benjamin Kelly
this advice only applies to white people. they won't fuck with niggers like you.
Asher Rodriguez
>our niggers are much More niggery than yours Based on what, you obviously don't know our black areas. The only difference is that ours are full of illegal firearms and yours are full of legal ones. I think the OP would fare better in your ghettos where he's got novelty and visitor value than going to hang around Toxteth or Moss side where he'd just be targeted as per normal. Negros are negros in Africa, America or England. Being in America doesn't remove an extra half a chromosome.
Zachary Johnson
Farmington Hills isn't Detroit. Its pretty nice. 8mile and farmington area is getting a bit ghetto but not bad. The lower the mile road the trashier it gets. Id stay north as possible. Stay away from west.bloomfiled (aka west jewfield) soo many jews. If you want a nicer area go to 23mile road, Shelby twp, sterling heights, Rochester Hills, Utica etc. Those are.nice and fairly white. Hopefully the arabs and.blacks stay away from there. Visit the zoo, henry ford, the science center, maybe a hockey game. Theres some nice brewerys around and lots.of bars and restaurants.
Nathan Wood
Take a trip out here to Ann Arbor. Lots of white/Asian liberal pussies that couldn't hurt you if they tried. Lots of great food and babes galore. Many Brit expats in town for UM, fwiw.
Justin Jackson
Umm Southfield is getting a bit white trash and ghettish. Ann Arbor is ok, but parking is annoying and may have to pay and of hipsters and asians. Could be worse I guess.
Adrian Mitchell
You won't leave. You'll see that you can buy a house big ass house for under 200000 quid. Farmington hills isn't depressing like the rest of Michigan, Or ohio. Farmington hills is Oakland county Detroit is Wayne county big big difference Oakland county is real America, Wayne county is a corpse.
Dominic Green
Why do you have to go?
Jaxon Sanchez
Lol, you don't understand. It doesn't matter what the color of your skin is, once you leave the sterile part of the airport you MUST re-screen to enter.
They probably thought you were asking if you left security, would you be allowed back into the other side of the airport if you rescreened.
There's actually giant signs before you leave the sterile area warning you that you are and that once you pass that sign, you must exit and re-screen if you want back in the sterile (Screened) side of the airport.
Eli Williams
If he is going to Farmington hills it's on business. Many fortune 500 companies there.
Thomas Stewart
He said personal reasons though. Probably some sperg who's going to meet his internet girlfriend for the first time.
Isaiah Powell
here This is the sign.
Zachary Jackson
As long as you are in Oakland or Macomb county you should be fine. Outside of Pontiac, it is a great place
Samuel Cooper
You could do some Charlie of a nice blonds tits, fuger and go shoot guns get the full monty, and your in Michigan so go race cars somewhere.
Alexander Garcia

Dearborn is a shithole. It's not dangerous, but the roads are some of the worst I've ever seen. They're more pothole than actual road.
Logan Rogers
Well said English. But we thought nigs being submerged in your culture would help a bit, but then we saw Diane Abbot.
Josiah Walker
Hope your not expecting to Uber from the airport to the hotel.
Sebastian Nelson
You misused the word "your" twice. Learn2English.
Joseph Edwards
As a white Detroit resident my entire life, Ican confirm this guy knows his shit.
Joshua Young
Why shouldnt he? There is absolutely zero reason why that cant be expected.
