Eh? Can you explain what you're referring to here? There's no longer a Little Italy area within Detroit proper. Detroit has about a 10% Caucasian population, most of whom are "Anglos" descended from people who moved up from the South, a few "hipsters" and Middle Easterners. There are likely still some Italians but most have assimilated and/or moved out to the suburbs long ago.


Sorry I stand corrected. I just remember whenever I cross the US border seeing many yards with Italian flags but upon further investigation it is Niagara Falls I am thinking of an not Windsor/Detroit. According to the article there were indictments in 2006 though.
