Welcome to this week's installment of Curbed Comparisons, where we usually explore what you can rent for a certain dollar amount in various Detroit neighborhoods. This week we’re doing things a little different and looking at one-bedroom rentals along or near Woodward Avenue.
SMART, Reflex, and DDOT buses all run along this route. How do rental prices change as we move north of downtown and further from the QLINE? Here are our picks for the week. Vote for your favorite below.
