from global competition and has moved much of the remaining production out of Detroit.
The population of the city has fallen from a high of 1,850,000 in 1950 to 701,000 in 2013. Some
of the highest crime rates in the United States are now those of Detroit, and huge areas of the city
are in a state of severe urban decay. The police force and fire service do not have enough money
to pay for staff and equipment such as fully operational vehicles. In 2013, Detroit filed
the largest municipal bankruptcy case in U.S. history.
How does unemployment affect the income of city? Describe how unemployment might lead to
