It is the largest city in Washtenaw County, is the seat of county government and is home to arguably one of the best universities in the entire country – the University of Michigan. This connection makes Ann Arbor a place that does not follow, but a community that defines, creates and leads. Its downtown area draws character from its various districts - from Main Street, to State Street and of course Kerrytown. Each has its own personality, shopping vibe and entertainment options. Cultural opportunities abound, both feeding off and complimenting the U of M connection. Housing is diverse, from student livable spaces to high end exclusive neighborhoods. Ann Arbor - a small city that only see BIG!

Barton Hill Village is a unique place of wooded hills, artistic homes and congenial neighbors. Located along the Huron River the land was originally considered too hilly for farming. So they built a dam instead to harness electricity for the local area. When this outlived its usefullness Detroit Edison offered the residents the opportunity to self-manage, which led to the village becoming the first home rule village in Washtenaw County. An amazing story, an amazing history, and amazing place to live. 58
