Submissions should relate to the Detroit, Metro Detroit, and the people, culture, events, and topics relevant to Detroiters.

“Detroit” means the City of Detroit, its suburbs, and the counties that make up Metro Detroit. Statewide topics are acceptable if they have a direct impact on Detroit. National topics typically belong on other subs.

Posts about local businesses/events are welcome from ACTIVE sub members. You may even mention your own business. New accounts may not advertise & business-specific accounts should post in weekly stickied thread unless they have permission from sub moderators

No buying, selling, ticket sales, or crowdfunding posts. Surveys & polls are only allowed if they are specific to the Detroit area

Employment and hiring posts should be shared on r/DetroitJobs

Posts on political news and thoughts are welcome any time from active sub members. Political posts by people who do not otherwise contribute to r/Detroit are not permitted.

Don’t advertise a specific candidate or policy. No “Vote for ____” posts.

Your post should provide something new; whether original content, a link, a story, an anecdote, or something else - put some effort into it!

Memes are acceptable in moderation, but should be posted in acceptable ratios to all content (no flooding the subreddit).

Link posts should use the same title as the source headline.

Reposts are not permitted for 14 days. If another source provides a different perspective this may be shared.

Don't copy/paste full articles. Sharing a summary is encouraged.
