Review of Ann Arbor, Michigan


Excellent City to Live in
Star Rating - 3/25/2007
I moved to Ann Arbor to attend school and I never left! I love the cultural diversity of the city and the schools. The school system offers many choices and has award-winning music departments at the local high schools. It's a "green" city with a large number recycling, has a liberal mentality, lots of parks and shops. Although Michigan is going through a bad time with it's economy right now (and Ann Arbor is losing Pfizer, a blow to the city), but I still believe that Ann Arbor will survive. The only downside is the winters, which can be cold but don't last very long. The spring and summer in Ann Arbor is beautiful to behold. Another downside is that rentals and housing prices can be daunting but it's worth it to live here.
Come and give Ann Arbor a try. It's a wonderful place to live, raise a family or be single.
