The Ann Arbor Market

Ann Arbor has been described as “25 square miles surrounded by reality” and “a little bit of California dropped into the Midwest.” It’s true- Ann Arbor is one of Michigan’s delightfully distinctive cities.

Home to the world-class University of Michigan, Ann Arbor is an international center for sophisticated research and development. Its educated workforce has attracted so many high-tech companties that Ann Arbor has become a top-ten market nationally for software firms.

Four days each July, downtown Ann Arbor becomes the home of the largest outdoor art fair in the country which covers 26 city blocks and features more than 1,000 artists and half a million patrons. Graced with over 33,000 trees along the city streets, Ann Arbor has been rated one of the top 10 cycling cities in North America.

Ann Arbor’s restaurants, theatre, retail stores and civic events reflect a diverse, cosmopolitan population.
