Flint lies just to the northeast of the Flint hills. The terrain is low and rolling along the south and east sides, and flatter to the northwest.

For a city of its size, Flint has many neighborhoods, grouped around the center of the city on the four cardinal "sides." The downtown business district is centered on Saginaw Street south of the Flint River. Just west, on opposite sides of the river, are Carriage Town (north) and the Grand Traverse Street District (south). These neighborhoods were the center of manufacturing for and profits from the nation's carriage industry until the 1920s, and to this day are the site of many well preserved Victorian homes and the setting of Atwood Stadium. Just north of downtown is River Village, a successful example of mixed income public housing. To the east of I-475 is Central Park, a small neighborhood defined by cul-de-sacs.

As of the census² of 2000, there were 124,943 people, 48,744 households, and 30,270 families residing in the city. The population density was 1,434.5/km² (3,714.9/sq mi). There were 55,464 housing units at an average density of 636.8/km² (1,649.1/sq mi). The racial makeup of the city was 41.39% White, 53.27% Black or African American, 0.64% Native American, 0.44% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 1.11% from other races, and 3.14% from two or more races. 2.99% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

According to the FBI, Flint has one of the highest crime rates in Michigan (5538 incidents/100,000 residents). In the 1980s and 90's Flint was nicknamed the murder capital of the US.

You are seeking background information on the book, The Watson's go to Birmingham. This is a book written by Christopher Paul Curtis.The Watson family ls living in Flint, Michigan.

The weather in Michigan gets cold in the winter. Michigan in 1963 has many factories that make automobiles and most of the workers are union workers. There is less racial prejudice in Flint than there is in Birmingham, Mississippi.
