Tent City Camping
Detroit authorities were not receptive to camping and require extensive permits, so USSF organizers have restricted the tent city housing option to the Youth & Cyclist Tent. Unofficial options are available if you have local contacts, or you can visit the AMC/USSF message board to connect with local Detroiters offering yard space for camping. If you want to rent a bike, scroll to the end of www.ussf2010.org/tentcitycamping for the reservation information.
The AMC is sharing their housing and ride board with the USSF! Visit the message board to connect with local folks offering sublets, couchs, floors and yard space for camping.

USSF participants in need of low-cost housing options or who are looking for alternatives to hotels, we have a few options. Detroit logistics coordinators have arranged with local building, apartment owners and churches several basic sleeping options. Spaces are available on a limited basis, first come, first served!

All solidarity housing participants are strongly encouraged to bring a sleeping bag, towel and toiletries!

Check out the new AMC/USSF Message Board for housing & rideshare posts, courtesy of the Allied Media Conference. You must be registered for the AMC and/or USSF to have access to solidarity housing. Some locals are also offering “couch-surfing” options.
We have secured apartments for rent for 14 or 30 days at $15-20/per day per person. These spaces work well for families with children or organizations traveling together. Each apartment will have a stove and refrigerator and some have partial furnishings, so bring linen, sleeping bags, and toiletries, should you require such arrangements. Transportation to and from the Forum events will be arranged from some apartment sites. Check out available apartments at the Solidarity Housing page.
We have identified vacant homes that groups may wish to rent or purchase and live in during the USSF. Check out theHouses for Rent page.
