In a Bloomberg Television interview on “The Close,” Detroit Future City President and CEO Anika Goss joins host Romaine Bostick to discuss Detroit’s economic progress, including declining unemployment and recent population growth across the city.
Goss notes that Detroit’s recent population increase has been driven largely by new immigrants, though the city is not yet growing as quickly or as broadly as hoped. She explains that the downtown investment and visible revitalization many now associate with Detroit have emerged mainly over the past five to ten years, following decades of decline.
The conversation underscores that while momentum is real, the benefits of that growth have not yet reached neighborhoods at the pace residents would like, pointing to the continued need for investment that extends beyond downtown and into communities across the city.
