There a ton of bars and clubs to choose from, some within Detroit, and some in the outskirts of Detroit. There's a hopping and hip nightlife in Ferndale and Royal Oak. You just have to experience it to truly know what it's like. There are also plenty of places 18 and up, so no one feels left out.

Whether you're looking for a place to dance or somewhere to have intellectual conversations, Detroit has your fit. Depending on where you go, you'll find budget-worthy drinks or drinks that might break the bank.

I never get the opportunity to enjoy nightlife at the school because i am a commuter. I do hear of house parties and nice bars though.

Detroit Nightlife

For underage people who are younger than 21, there is less to do in Detroit. There is some nights and some places that allow 18 and up but not many. CCS is not a big party college and it is a dry campus. The parties do have many underage drinkers but they do not get out of hand and rairly does anyone drive because they do not have transportation. For someone who is 21 or older and has experienced the nightlife, there is lots to do and many places to go. It is hard to just find a hoouse party through CCS, we often go to a neighboring college/university.
