Good news coming out of the Free Press this Sunday.

According to a new poll conducted by the Detroit Free Press and WXYZ-TV Channel 7, no matter where in the state some 72% of Michiganders agree that a healthy, vibrant Detroit is either essential or important to Michigan’s future vitality.

No surprise that view of importance is viewed more strongly in and around the surrounding Metro Detroit counties of Wayne, Macomb and Oakland.

One interesting finding: Young voters (ages 18-40) and seniors 65 and older were identical in their views. Among both groups, 72% said Detroit is “important” or “essential” to Michigan’s economy.
