Where to find Detroit's fall colors

Detroit's fall colors have arrived — and there's a map to tell you where to find it.

Driving the leaves: Detroitography, led by local cartographer and anthropologist Alex B. Hill, released this map highlighting areas with the most fall color.

• Turn on your smartphone's "avoid highway" settings and hit the city streets for the scenic route.

Between the lines: Hill notes that the city's fall beauty seems to be easier to find in its wealthier neighborhoods, like East English Village.

• But they do appear along historic thoroughfares like Oakman Boulevard and Boston or Edison Avenues, as well as a stretch of East Jefferson Avenue near Belle Isle.
• Rouge Park and Northwest Detroit's neighborhoods are full of color, Hill writes.

Of note: Maple trees are full of red leaves and white oak have orange and orange-red hues, while aspen, birch and hickories have golden yellow leaves.
