Lets see, dwindling job industry, racist natives, ultra religious fanatics (both Christian and Muslim) I don't see what there is to like. If you have something positive to add about the place please do so. I related my experience and what I see through national statistics. I am assuming someone from Pakistan is trying to use their limited money and resources to find a place to visit in the US, I'd rather give them an honest view of the place. I guess my loyalties are still to my Fellow Pakistanis despite being born in the US and not to white trash Midwestern Americans.
Dude......I have lived in TX, OK, MO,NJ, CA and IL apart frm MI and somehow I found MI being the most friendliest place(after CA) in terms of interaction among White/brown ppl. I don't intend to stay here all my life but as far as I am hanging on to my job, I am kewl..... My office has 99% caucasian staff and they are the most fun to work with. They are the main reason why I came here for a 4 months contract and then finally ended up with a PERM job. Economy is bad everywhere.....In MI it is worse because it was pretty much based on the automotive industry.
