 Detroit Homecoming

SUMMARY

Detroit is an exemplary example of citizen marketing and territorial enhancement. Through its ambassador recruitment campaign, the city has succeeded in recreating a sense of belonging among its expatriates, who no longer had one because of the city's reputation as a "disaster area".

"We can build a community around that affection that can be an economic force for Detroit.
