Dearborn is 6.7 miles from downtown Detroit, farther out than most of the areas on this map, with Southwest Detroit (3.6 miles) and River Rouge (4 miles) the nearest other coverage points. It's still on the same 24-hour dispatch as the rest of the network — the only difference is a slightly longer drive for the truck.
6.7 miles sits between Dearborn and downtown Detroit — more than double the distance of some of the closer-in areas on this list. Neither Southwest Detroit (3.6 miles) nor River Rouge (4 miles) is exactly around the corner either; both are a genuine drive of their own. That's the tradeoff with being on the far edge of a twenty-area map: still covered, just a few more minutes out.
None of that changes what happens once the call comes in — it changes where the truck is coming from before it does, and that's a smaller gap than the raw mileage suggests.
Does the extra distance mean a longer wait?
Some, but not the gap it might sound like. Southwest Detroit and River Rouge are the two closest covered areas to Dearborn, both several minutes out rather than next door, and trucks move through that stretch on a regular basis.
A call from Dearborn isn't starting cold from a shop 6.7 miles away downtown — it's usually starting from whichever of those two closer areas already has a truck finishing up a job nearby.
Does coverage thin out for areas farther from downtown?
No. Dispatch runs six full days around the clock, then narrows to a single Sunday window from 12:30 to 5:30 PM — the same schedule that applies to every one of the twenty areas covered, near or far. Dearborn sits on the far edge of the map by distance, not by priority.
