Detroit, Michigan Of United States. History, Economy, Climate
Detroit is the largest and most populous city in the U.S. state of Michigan. The largest city on the United States–Canada border. Regarded as a major cultural center, Detroit is known for its contributions to music and as a repository for art, architecture and design. Detroit was named a City of Design by UNESCO, the first U.S. city to receive that designation.
LOCATION
Detroit is the center of a three-county urban area. Detroit is the principal city in Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan situated in the Midwestern United States and the Great Lakes region. Detroit and its neighboring Canadian city Windsor are connected through a tunnel and the Ambassador Bridge, the busiest international crossing in North America.
HISTORY
The city was named by French colonists, referring to the Detroit River. On July 24, 1701, the French explorer Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, along with more than a hundred other settlers began constructing a small fort on the north bank of the Detroit River. 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.
EDUCATION
Detroit is home to several institutions of higher learning including Wayne State University, a national research university with medical and law schools in the Midtown area offering hundreds of academic degrees and programs. The University of Detroit Mercy, located in Northwest Detroit in the University District, is a prominent Roman Catholic co-educational university. The University of Detroit Mercy offers more than a hundred academic degrees and programs of study including business, dentistry, law, engineering, architecture, nursing and allied health professions.
CLIMATE
Detroit and the rest of southeastern Michigan have a humid continental climate which is influenced by the Great Lakes. Winters are cold, with moderate snowfall. Summers are warm to hot with temperatures exceeding 32 °C. The warm season runs from May to September. Thunderstorms are frequent in the Detroit area. These usually occur during spring and summer.
COMMUNICATION
Detroit is a major port located on the Detroit River, one of the four major straits that connect the Great Lakes system to the Saint Lawrence Seaway. The Detroit Metropolitan Airport is among the most important hubs in the United States.
GOVERNMENT
The city government is run by a mayor and a nine-member city council and clerk. Seven city council members are elected via district while two are elected at large. The mayor and clerk are elected in an at large election as well. The council approves budgets. The city clerk supervises elections and is formally charged with the maintenance of municipal records. Municipal elections for mayor, city council and city clerk are held at four-year intervals, in the year after presidential elections.
ARCHITECTURE
Detroit's waterfront shows a variety of architectural styles. The city has substantial activity in urban design, historic preservation, and architecture. Among the city's prominent structures are United States' largest Fox Theatre, the Detroit Opera House, and the Detroit Institute of Arts. While the Downtown and New Center areas contain high-rise buildings, the majority of the surrounding city consists of low-rise structures and single-family homes.
ECONOMY
The City of Detroit anchors the second-largest regional economy in the Midwest, behind Chicago and the 13th-largest in the United States. Detroit is best known as the center of the U.S. automobile industry, and the Big Three auto manufacturers General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler are all headquartered in Metro Detroit.

Amazing 50 Day Road Trip Across the USA and Canada
Eight months ago we had an idea... An idea that would take us on a journey across America... This summer we decided to make that idea a reality.
After eight months of planning, many hours of mapping routes and making reservations, and a final three days of intense packing, sorting and repacking; we embarked on our 50 days, 10,000 mile road trip through 38 states and Eastern Canada.
So here we are two years later, finally posting the video. We had an incredible time and would do it again in a heartbeat. If you enjoyed the video give it thumbs up and tell us what you thought in the comments below.

A Breathtaking Look at Every U.S. National Park
You’ve obviously heard of America’s most famous national parks, but did you know the National Park Service manages a whopping 59 parks? From coast to coast (with a couple of parks beyond those coasts), these protected areas represent the best of what this country has to offer. As writer Wallace Stegner said in 1893, National parks are the best idea we ever had. Absolutely American, absolutely democratic, they reflect us at our best rather than our worst. In honor of the 100th anniversary of the National Parks Service, we’re taking you on a tour of every single national park, all of which are breathtaking beauties on their own.

Tombstone, Arizona
Recorded April 20-21, 2017
Tombstone is a historic city Arizona. It was one of the last wide-open frontier boomtowns in the American Old West. The town prospered from about 1877 to 1890, during which time the town's mines produced $40 to $85 million in silver bullion, the largest productive silver district in Arizona. Its population grew from 100 to around 14,000 in less than seven years. It is best known as the site of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
