That plan by a former mayor (former NBA great Dave Bing) was hugely unpopular and never launched.
Police and fire in Detroit is hugely difficult because they have a large area to protect that includes numerous ghost neighborhoods. Often a fire is set in an abandoned house and if it's windy spreads to occupied residences.
Despite the difficulty Detroit's current mayor is committed to all the cities neighborhoods. However if you follow the money resources are concentrated in a handful of neighborhoods.
