Cadillac would later name the settlement Fort Pontchartrain du Detroit.
POPULATION
Detroit is the 23rd-most populous city in the United States. The city's population increased more than sixfold during the first half of the 20th century, fed largely by an influx of European, Middle Eastern (Lebanese, Assyrian/Chaldean), and Southern migrants to work in the burgeoning automobile industry. Detroit remains one of the most racially segregated cities in the United States.
