To be fair, Downtown Detroit sits on the edge of the Metro Area. The Metro Center is really closer to 8 Mile and Woodward, of which the major job centers of Downtown, Troy, Warren, Southfield, Dearborn, Sterling Heights, etc. are all within ten miles. While there are still major job centers further out (the I-275 corridor, the M-59 corridor, Downriver, etc.) I would bet that at least half of all Metro Detroit's jobs are within 10 miles of 8 Mile/Woodward.
