I'm aware the scanner could get busy at any times, however does anyone have any types of times it might be in particular busy. I have:

Devils Night
Halloween Night
New Year's Eve
High Wind Advisory/Warning
Severe thunderstorms
Tornados
Winter storms

Any other times you think it'd be really busy.

Each area has its own "personality". I would imagine that if you're listening to Detroit frequencies, the overnight hours especially on hot nights during the weekend would be especially busy on the police and fire freqs. I think that's safe to say about any major city, not just to single out Detroit. I suggest leaving your scanner on 24/7 just loud enough for you to notice activity no matter where you are in the house. After a time, you'll sense a pattern as to when things are hopping in your area.
