The Detriot exploration continues.
Two houses which look like vampire lairs, except for the inhabitants who are casually chilling in the front garden:

Another picturesque house:

Not delapidated, but the weirdest attempt at faux-medieval architecture I've ever seen:

And finally, my new favourite Detroit building:

Idk because compared to LA or NYC, Flint is really small. To towns with only 5-10k people, Flint is pretty big... https://boxden.com/smilies/Qh2Vxfi.gif

Those photos are just fabulous, Marie; exactly the kind of houses I love too; I will take your tip and explore google streetview. So far I have relied on YouTube, which has many drive-around videos of dilapidated US cities, including Detroit. A key search term is "hoods".

Here are some pics that I think you might also like, plus a good place to visit virtually: Gary, Indiana:-
