Could be better

The apartment I'm in is decent, it does have a few issues though. The kitchen is very tight and definitely needs a renovation. There are no drains in the kitchen or the washrooms which makes cleaning them a bit of a challenge. The bedrooms vary in size, the one I'm in is super tight (2x3 m) but has a great built in closet (no drawers, and only one shelf though). The management is really nice, but their response rate is pretty slow.

The community overall is good though, it is quiet and surrounded by a lot of nature which makes for great views and pleasant walks. There is a Ride bus stop nearby and a library, and the closest grocery store is only a 10 minute walk away making it very convenient.

Good place but far from everything

The space itself is nice and large enough with decent appliances and a good, safe community. Responsive management. None of the utilities are included and gas for heating especially can get very expensive in the winter. A bus (City route 22) stops right across the street by the district library and parking is free (paid spots under car ports), so residents aren't stranded, but the location is very far from everything interesting and fun in ann arbor. Half mile down the road from shopping center with a Kroger and restaurants. Fairly far of a walk/bike even from Taubman. Not very convenient/accessible for students/residents that need to go to downtown or central campus often.

Traver Ridge

Great apartment. Cheap with good amenities. Location isn't great if you aren't driving to campus and is farther from downtown, where theres more activity. This is the tradeoff for the low rent.

Almost Everything is great.....

Living here is amazing, with great access to stores and restaurants up north. Getting onto campus is great since there is also a city bus that is right at the front of the community. Only thing is the location is a bit secluded and it's bit further away than central campus. other than that,, everything is good.

North Campus Reviews

North Campus is the place to be!! Lots of trails and nature for walking, NCRB gym nearby, grocery stores, gas, food, and more. Mostly graduate students up here so quieter but also within 10 min drive to downtown. There's always parking too.
I have lived in A2 for going on 14 years, it is sort of like having a friend, even when you are alone.

Me and a friend and her dog visit neighborhood parks.

That dog met the caged bald eagle at Leslie Science Center.. and twang!
To the end of his leash! The eagle looked at him like he was the most delicious thing he's seen all Winter. We just trudged thru the snow to view the cages, (both eagle and dog are ok)
Great quieter area very close to the hospital, and close to many other med students. It’s a more peaceful area that’s a tad farther from downtown, but for someone who likes a quieter space to study or nice spaces to walk and hang out with friends, white coat area is right by the river and Island Drive Park, and there are often med student social events held at White Coat Area because so many medical students choose to live here.
I personally really like North Campus, although it is farther away from downtown and the law school. There are several restaurants right near my apartment complex and the commute to school is very easy. I also find the lack of nightlife a plus, because it means the neighborhood is a lot quieter and safer than other areas of Ann Arbor.
Overall this area is great for walking to the medical school and hospital, living near other medical students, and especially having easier parking than in the central downtown/kerrytown areas. You also escape the rowdiness of undergrads by living here. The main reason I gave it a "7/very good" rating was because I don't like feeling isolated in location from central campus. Walking from White Coat to restaurants/bars downtown is at least 20-25 minutes, and often I decide not to go just because I don't want to walk there and back. After 6PM everyday parking is free downtown (free all day on Sunday), which is nice, except you don't always want to drive if you are going out to bars. It would be nice to have some type of casual coffee shop or restaurant in walkable distance to White Coat, but there is not. (edit: there is one breakfast-like cafe near White Coat, but it gets busy and is over-priced). There are some restaurants and coffee shops down the street on Plymouth road (not downtown) which is an easy 5 minute drive.
Multiple apartment/condo complexes within 10 minute walk of one another creating central location for many medical students of the University of Michigan. Park is 5 minute walk away. Lecture halls are 15 minutes door to hall. Hospital is 15-20 minutes from door to specific area of hospital. Never any safety issues. Parking can be strict and limited. Few stores and restaurants nearby.
This neighborhood is a 10 minute walk to the hospital which makes is very popular for medical students, residents, and even attendings. It is quiet, but it can be very busy in the morning and around 4pm when everyone is arriving/leaving their shifts. Grocery stores, cafes, and restaurants are a 5 min drive away near north campus.
Pros: beautiful - near the Huron River (5 min walk!) and trails and lots of trees. Very quiet. Residential area - maybe only 20% students vs. long-term residents where I am, though I'm close to the hospitals and med students, architects, and engineers all live up here. Very safe, and I see deer or even a raccoon once in a while. Grocery store is 1 mile away (Kroeger).

Cons: less social than I like in terms of proximity to Rossers. There is only one on my street that I know of.
