Interesting how the Milwaukee map was done.  Also can be borderline racist as well :eyebrow:

re: Milwaukee
The Marquette student enclave should be a little smaller.
And based on local news coverage, the barrio is not nearly as "scary" as the near northwest side ghetto.

Also there should be another area for "S'tallis".  That's all that it needs to say.

Other than that, spot on.  Hilariously spot on.

I'm tempted to draw Montreal with a one-street-wide red strip along East Ste. Catherine Street.

The way the current Montreal's mayor Gerald Tremblay runs the city. It might be a red strip along the current city limits http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Montreal2006.png

Edit: One poster at http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showpost.php?p=5362327&postcount=22 said Toronto is on its way of becoming Detroit within the decade, but the way Montreal is ruled, I have some doubts... :hmm:

With the possible exception of Five Points and some parts of Aurora, Denver doesn't really have any bad parts of town.

And Fort Collins doesn't have any bad areas. AT ALL.

Yeah, I should've been refering to the "Island of Montréal" rather than the gruyere-esque "City of Montréal".
