Michigan: The urban-rural divide writ large

I like this map a lot, but your 7th looks somewhat like a "Leftovers" district.

Like the second revision a lot. If I had to guess, I'd say Dems win the 12th, 13th, 7th, 9th, 4th, and 8th. R's take the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, 10th, and 11th. But the only ones I'd call safe for either party would be the two Detroit seats for D's and the 2nd and 10th for R's.

When competitiveness takes first priority the map usually suffers as a whole (Arizona), but when a good map has the extra bonus of competitiveness it's like a cherry on top.
