Ну раз уж сегодня День Детройта в ЖЖ, внесу и я свою лепту. Вот что, в частности, можно почерпнуть о населении Детройта в Википедии:

Кстати, получилось неожиданно в тему: Швейцария - страна, где я чаще всего бываю, а турок и итальянцев я действительно недолюбливаю (правда, к гражданам Бенилюкса я индифферентен, но в мире нет совершенства)
