The counties in greater Detroit where the wealthy live are nicer than anywhere in Alberta. The rich in big American cities neither notice nor care how the poor live because they live in enclaves untouched by urban decay. Do you think the families of NHL coaches are riding around on public transit, and going to public schools in inner city Detroit? Nik Lidstrom cares so much about his family that he seriously considered leaving the NHL in the 90s so he could raise his kids in Sweden. Instead, he found an exclusive county in Michigan agreeable enough that he and his family stayed another 15 years.
