Detroit
One more place in the USA which officials are willing to pay you just for living in is Detroit, Michigan. Once among the largest industrial American cities, since 1970s it is falling into decay. The gasoline crises of 1973 and 1979 and the following growth of unemployment were the main reasons for the rapid shortage of population in Detroit. And more than that, it has the highest pollution level in the USA.
No wonder that now Detroit is seeking ways to attract new habitants. One of its social programs is giving $20,000 in forgivable loans for purchasing a house or apartment in Detroit. To qualify for this program you should be employed by one of the local companies which are participating in the program.
