I learned that certain areas don't like to be called the Detroit area.

Particularly "Eastpointe", which changed its name from "East Detroit" about 20 yrs. ago.

I lived on the outskirts of Flint, where being confused with Detroit was considered an upgrade.

We used to say Detroit was the @sshole of Michigan and Flint was 60 miles up it.
