Two city residents and a former resident discuss the Census Bureau data showing Detroit now has nearly 650,000 people. The conversation explores what's driving the comeback — from intentional investments in housing and small businesses to the city's unique culture and identity that makes people want to stay. They also discuss retention strategies, the importance of building diverse housing stock, and predictions for Detroit's future growth, including the possibility of climate migration bringing even more new residents to the Great Lakes region.
