There are two in Detroit. Warren, MI, where the next closest theater is, is half an hour away.

That's the way it is in at least 75% of US cities. The "Donut-hole" phenomena is long standing. Just as an example, Detroit seems to have a comparable number of screens to Los Angeles proper: http://www.google.ca/movies?sc=1&hl=en&near=los+ange...

The multiplex is almost always at least somewhat suburban.
