Where is 'South Detroit'?

The World
The Geo Quiz is looking for a place that may or may not exist: South Detroit. In Journey's "Don't Stop Believin," we hear the line "just a city boy, born and raised in South Detroit." The Detroit Tigers play the song in their home stadium, every game, between the 7th and 8th innings. But check a map of Detroit and you won't find a place called "South Detroit." In fact, if you travel south from Detroit, you end up in another country. So if it's not technically in Detroit, where is South Detroit? Answer: it's Windsor, Ontario in Canada. Yes, it is confusing and we asked Detroit based journalist Dave Lingholm to clear up the geographical confusion for us.
