Don't know where you plan on working, but I live in Troy, which is near Royal Oak or Ferndale. There are some nice apartments in that area. Royal oak and Ferndale are popular areas with the young crowd. I work in Downtown detroit and it takes me maybe 20minutes to get to work.

A friend of mine lived here and it wasn't bad. You can have a dog too(don't know if that is of importence or not). Depending on what you are looking to spend there are lots of houses for rent in the Macomb/Oakland county areas as well that are pretty close to rent for some apartments. If you are looking to save a little money, I'd lean towards southern Macomb county and if you don't mind spending a bit more look at Northern Macomb and Oakland, they are a little nicer and the price reflects it. Depending on your shift, if you'll be traveling during rush hour via I-94, 696 or I-75 I'd tack an extra 30 minutes to your commute just to be safe because of traffic(especially with construction that seems to be never ending!). Good luck! The DMC is nice(even though I work for Beaumont), my dad was treated there(at Karmanos) and we liked it.

THIS PLACE LOOKS PRETTY NICE, IS IT NEAR HENRY FORD HOSPITAL? I WILL BE RELOCATING MYSELF FROM OUT OF STATE, AND NEED AN APT NOT TOO FAR FROM DETROIT.

I did a mapquest from there to Henry Ford and it says about 25 minutes, 20.6 miles away from it. However the way they suggested seems to take you out and around, so it may be a little bit quicker than that.
You might want to try Madison Heights or Clawson. I lived in one that is now owned by Amber Apartments and it was nice and pretty reasonable.

Another tidbit, sometimes apartment complexes will have deals where they will cover heat or water. Look for deals. My first apartment covered the water, my rent was 435 bucks and it was a one bedroom apt and very nice.
