#4 I'm not sure how you define "wilderness beyond the urban area" but most of the area outside the urban sprawl of Detroit is farmland.
#11 The southern border of Detroit is the Detroit River. You might argue that a tiny portion of the far east end of Detroit borders Lake St. Clair, but the lake is not very large, and it likely formed not from glacial erosion but from the land rebounding after deglaciation.
Agree that #4 and #11 are incorrect.
I did get #1 but hesitated due to the 1967 riots. Maybe add "rebellion against the national government" or something.
