Slumburbs indeed! A Birmingham mother is miffed that she has to lock her door. "I don't know what this world is coming to," said Trista Shulman, 30. Our take? Crime-sprees Birmingham-style actually just sound like the 1950s unraveling. Shulman said the city has become less tight-knit over the years. Everybody used to know everybody and how their dog was doing, she said. Hello, 2012. How is your dog? Never mind, we'll just follow him on twitter if we want to know. [The Detroit News]
