Detroit's momentum keeps building. Our city's credit rating continues to climb, thanks to strong financial management, steady development, and rising residential property values. Even through uncertain times, even the pandemic, Detroit maintained solid reserves and stayed on track.

Twelve years ago, Motor City Match set out to help Detroiters open the doors to their dreams including restaurants, gyms, hair salons, hardware stores and more.

Detroit is building a city where everyone belongs!

With over $1.6 billion invested in affordable housing over the past six years, residents now have access to quality apartments, so families can stay in the neighborhoods they love. Affordable housing is a priority in Detroit.

When I took office, less than 30% of homicides were being cleared, and non-fatal shootings were solved at just 15%.

What was once filled with debris and blight is now a pathway of connection and renewal.

The Joe Louis Greenway has 6 miles open, 6 miles under construction, and will soon become almost 30-mile loop linking neighborhoods across Detroit.

What used to be a desolate, flooded school is now a renewed anchor in the neighborhood. The historic Higginbotham School will be transformed into affordable housing and new apartments, and the team made sure the community was at the center of every decision.

What may have seemed a forgotten space with a closed rec center has now been completely transformed into the newly renovated AB Ford Park on the east side in District 4.

Building a Beautiful Detroit, Block by Block!

Since its launch in 2021, the Neighborhood Beautification Program has provided grants to block clubs, neighborhood associations, nonprofits, and faith-based organizations across the city to create community gardens, improve public spaces.

Happy Thanksgiving, Detroit. Thank you for letting me be part of this incredible journey.

From the bright floats to the big smiles, today’s Thanksgiving Parade brought our Detroit family together in the best way.

Carjackings have dropped 88% dramatically since 2013 when it was 15 Carjackings a week. Now in 2025 with the help of DPD, Green Light Program, Real Time Crime Center and Partnering Agencies. Detroit now sees less than 2 carjackings a week.

Two years ago, we transformed Dexter Avenue with a brand-new streetscape, and now the corridor is coming back to life!

Detroit’s growing population needs more affordable homes and we’re making it happen.

Every Detroit family deserves a safe, affordable place to call home.

Detroit surpassed a historic milestone, over $1 billion invested in affordable housing.

Since 2014, Detroiters have turned more than 30,000 vacant lots into something beautiful.

What was once forgotten is now flourishing.Property values in Detroit have nearly tripled, and homeowners are building generational wealth right here in our neighborhoods. See how Detroit programs are helping residents grow and thrive: Detroitmi.gov/engagedetroit

Detroit is the future of technology, manufacturing, construction and so much more. Detroit led the conversation on America's Essential Economy at the inaugural Ford Pro Accelerate summit, held at the newly restored Michigan Central Station.

Putting Detroit homes back in the hands of Detroiters.

For too long, out-of-town speculators have bought up homes for cheap, ignored taxes, and mistreated tenants. Those days are coming to an end.

Ten years ago, homes in the Marygrove and Fitzgerald neighborhoods were abandoned and selling for under $10,000. But together with residents, we reimagined what was possible.

Detroit thank you! We came together today and we now have over 1300 volunteers that have signed up across 85 sites ready to go to distribute food for those impacted by SNAP interruptions.

Detroit's financial future is strong.
Built on years of smart planning and fiscal responsibility. Income and property tax revenues have doubled in five years, strengthening every
neighborhood's foundation for the long term. Detroit is built to endure and poised to continue progress.

Kresge didn't just invest in Detroit, they stayed. By choosing Marygrove over a downtown tower, they showed what real belief in Detroiters looks like: building with the people who never left.
October 21, 2025 at 1:07 PM
Detroiters who stayed and invested in their neighborhoods are seeing it pay off. Property values are rising, homes are being restored, and Detroiters are building generational wealth. Mr. Johnson's $40,000 investment is now worth $100,000, proof that Detroit is leveling up together.
October 18, 2025 at 3:59 PM
Detroit's blight removal mission is almost complete. 47,000+ vacant houses down to fewer than 1,000 left. 50,000 lots now ready for Detroiters to build, grow, and create what's next.
