No They Are Not. Not even generally, not even somewhat, not even a little bit. With the exception of a very small proud few and what's along woodward, the area is generally not maintained at all. Not the easements, not the empty lots, abandoned houses, or even some of the occupied buildings. You'll find trash of all sorts laying around. Broken glass, food wrappers, condoms. It's incredibly embarrassing, and a task force should be in place to take care of it. Just to confirm what I've seen countless times with my own eyes, I pulled up street view. Yep, nothing changed except one less building.
Don't take this as neighborhood bashing. It's a very serious problem and leaves an impression on the people who visit and lowers the quality of life for residents in that area. Trust me if I was living in that part of Detroit right now, I'd be organizing a Saturday morning volunteer cleanup to help take care of it.
