Detroit is your best bet for affordable great stuff to do without the nasty traffic common in most cities. Eat soul food, tacos in Mexicantown and grab a slice. Shop fresh at the Eastern Market. Get outside and stroll the RiverWalk. Music is a must (obvi Motown, techno, Eminem), see current events blow.
