ABOUT THE DETROIT METROPOLITAN AREA

Detroit, the largest city in the state of Michigan, is home to 4.3 million people in the Metro Detroit area. This area is the second largest in the Midwest, after the Chicago metropolitan area, and the 14th largest in the United States. Cultural organizations abound in this city, including the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Michigan Science Center, the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History, the Henry Ford, and the Motown Museum. Detroit is also home to a number of accredited colleges and universities, such as the University of Detroit Mercy, Wayne State University, and Wayne County Community College.

The Detroit metropolitan area comprises three counties: Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb. The city is home to four major league sports teams: the Detroit Tigers (baseball), Detroit Lions (football), Detroit Red Wings (hockey), and Detroit Pistons (basketball). Additionally, the city is headquarters for the "Big Three" automakers: Ford Motor Company, General Motors (GM), and Stellantis North America (Chrysler). The Detroit Metropolitan Airport is one of the most important hub airports in the United States.

Detroit International RiverWalk is an attractive destination for water enthusiasts, offering a riverfront promenade, various fountains, and splash parks for kids, a carousel, and nature areas that provide stunning views of Detroit and Canada.
