520    After living in San Francisco for 15 years, journalist 
       Gordon Young found himself yearning for his Rust Belt 
       hometown: Flint, Michigan, the birthplace of General 
       Motors and "star" of the Michael Moore documentary Roger 
       and Me. Hoping to rediscover and help a place that once 
       boasted one of the world's highest per capita income 
       levels, but is now one of the country's most impoverished 
       and dangerous cities, he returned to Flint with the 
       intention of buying a house. What he found was a place of 
       stark contrasts and dramatic stories, where an exotic 
       dancer can afford a lavish mansion, speculato.
