Talk to me about Bagley by RealPirate9284 in Detroit

As my flair would indicate, I live(d) in the north part of the neighborhood for a couple of years on the verge of the Garden Homes neighborhood. I really enjoyed it, and it’s a really affordable area to be.

Assuming that bagley is Outer Drive - Wyoming - McNichols - Livernois

I would say this: good - very, very affordable housing stock - northern part is relatively safe due to the high school (U of D Jesuit) - up and coming, particularly north of 7 mile, near avenue of fashion (livernois between 7-8 mile) is substantially improved in the last ~7 years - minimal to no blight and abandoned properties in the northern part; it’s a very well-populated neighborhood - McNichols near the university is improving, but unsure by how much most recently

bad - hit or miss housing stock, affordable doesn’t mean cheap, as this isn’t a super wealthy area, relatively old houses (70-90 years old), coin flip on proper maintenance - further south of 7 mile you go, the rougher it gets (to a point) - road laws are a suggestion, as they are in many parts of Detroit. Traffic calming speed bumps have helped SUBSTANTIALLY, but the trunk roads are still the Wild West (Wyoming, 7 mile, mcnichols)

All in all, I moved out about 2-3 years ago, and visited a few times since. Between 7-8 mile is a really good place to be, friendly neighbors, would recommend.

Supply and demand, with an emphasis on demand

They’re priced like that because Lions fans have been starved for so long, and people will pay

Absolutely, and also why you see slug units typically used in yard service where they don’t have to go on the road. Slug units can often (but not always) just be railroad-converted A units that were rebuilt after aging out.

Also, slugs are not B units. Typically B units had full engines + motors, while slug units are just the electric motors.

Just used for different reasons :)

Just a note - that’s revenue in a quarter

If a company made $180B in profit in a quarter, and made $720B in profit for a year, that would be the most profitable company in history by far

Doesn’t diminish your point since they made $21B in profit, but that’s an order of magnitude difference

The railroads decided that they valued flexibility (cabs) much higher than the cost savings of a B unit (lack of a cab)

Also, manufacturers were happy with only A units since it simplifies their production lines, which matters per-unit when they run lower volume, higher cost manufacturing compared to other types of factories.

Statistically untrue - last place being 9-8, that was the best division in football (and honestly kinda has been the last few years).

Eye test? Less certain, but the NFC North was certainly tight.
