Looking for feedback from people who moved from GR to Metro Detroit

Did you regret it?

Just wanted to get some feedback from people who moved from GR to Metro Detroit. My husband got a job offer and we're currently weighing our options. I wouldn't need to find a new job as I work a state-wide role. It's a 45% increase in pay and more opportunities for growth (automotive).

We love GR, Lake Michigan, and the countless vacation spots near by. We also have a beautiful Victorian house with a large garden. We're not sure if we're ready to let go of all of that and move to a faster-paced, sprawling suburb with seemingly more expensive, smaller houses with not much character (and worse traffic).

We visit Detroit and Chicago often and we do enjoy bigger city perks, diversity and culture (he's white, I'm mixed ethnicities) but always let out a sigh of relief when we get home.

Any insights would be appreciated because on paper, everything makes sense about this new job except this move, and we don't want to have any regrets or resentment.
