About Student Housing in Ypsilanti
Ypsilanti, Michigan is a historic city just east of Ann Arbor, built around Eastern Michigan University, with the larger University of Michigan close enough that some students split their time between the two. Set along the Huron River, Ypsilanti is known for its walkable historic districts and its independent, slightly artsy character. Depot Town, a restored district of 19th-century storefronts near Frog Island and Riverside parks, is the city's signature spot, while Downtown along Michigan Avenue hosts monthly First Fridays and a steady run of festivals. Student life centers on Normal Park, College Heights, and the Historic East Side near Cross Street, all close to campus. Green space follows the river out along the Border-to-Border Trail.
