To satisfy my curiosity, I used the Detroit crime map: http://detroit.mi.crimeviewcommunity.com/wizard.asp In the last 30 days, there have been about 30 reported violent crimes in the 1/2 mile radius around this property. Here is how it looks like:

Amazing things can become even more amazing. $33.87 is what it is today.

Buy low, sell high. And I am not kidding. Too many people are trying to do the opposite.
