Excerpt from Detroit as the People See It: A Survey of Attitudes in an Industrial City
This study has one central purpose. It aims to report facts that will be useful to persons interested in making Detroit a better city.
The facts have to do with the feelings and attitudes of Detroit people toward their city. These facts are subjective and for proper interpretation must be viewed inthe light of many other facts that are not included in the study. The other facts refer to objective conditions in Detroit - ih formation concerning incomes and standards of living, jobs, education, health, social and political behavior, and many more such matters that show how the people of the city are faring. But knowledge regarding these objective conditions is not enough. Important evidence comes also from people's reports of their personal feelings. It is this latter type of knowl edge with which this study is concerned.
