I work in West Michigan which unfortunately doesn't have the same new-tech support Detroit is getting, but honestly I'd rather see it in Detroit. That city needs the attention and help its starting to get, and it will help the state as a whole (as well as northern Ohio/Toledo).

The business community there is pushing so hard to get the city up and running again. They're even donating money to the government to build a light rail/commuter rail system (enough money to run it for 10 years at no taxpayer expense)[1]. It's a really positive attitude, and absolutely inspiring. Maybe someday I'll find myself down on Woodward Ave as well.
