As someone who chose to move to the area, I can tell you that some jobs are there and they do pay competitively; you just have to work to find them.

I have friends with Masters degrees and even PhDs who have been job-searching in the area for many months. That said, I think Detroit offers something incredibly special to those who are willing to endure this job search. Detroit is a place where people can make a real difference. Sure, you can move to Chicago and have an easier go at it, but you'll just be one in a sea of a people in the city. In Detroit, whatever your passion, there is a huge opportunity for you to have a real impact, and to be known for that which inevitably breeds other opportunities. Detroit isn't for everyone - it requires a certain grit and determination - but those who choose this journey will love every minute of it!
