Yeah, Canton is not Detroit. Eight miles north of there you'll see 8 Mile Road in Northville, but despite the fact that it's the same name and an extension of the same road, it's just not the (in)famous "8 Mile" that it is closer to town.
My wife forbids saying that we live in Detroit. I instead tell people that we're from (south-east) Michigan.
