Cowen 2020 SA in....Detroit?

I know Cowen acquired Quarton Partners who are based in Detroit awhile ago. Got invited to a first round and am wondering if I'd be crazy to consider working in Detroit. Any insight into Cowen's Det unit or working/living in the area?

Very nice area - Birmingham / Bloomfield is a very wealthy area... tons of old money.

COL is low. As some have stated, downtown Detroit is quite revitalized thanks to Dan Gilbert.

Royal Oak is another dope spot where all the young people live and IMO the best spot to go out at... its right next to Birmingham.

The Founder or Quarton is a very nice guy but can’t speak to the rest of the partners.
