Plansmart places you close to everything Ann Arbor is known for, while keeping daily life pleasantly low-key. Tree-canopied streets, pocket parks, and front-porch conversations set the tone, and the Huron River greenway puts weekend runs and paddle outings on the calendar. Downtown dining and the open-air markets of Kerrytown are just a quick bike ride away, as are lectures, sports, and performances at the University of Michigan. When you want a quieter afternoon, the neighborhood’s residential blocks make it easy to slow down without losing connection to the city’s inventive food scene, indie shops, and year-round events.
Families value access to Ann Arbor Public Schools, with sought-after elementary options and well-regarded high schools that feed thriving arts, athletics, and STEM programs. Commuters appreciate multiple routes via TheRide and straightforward drives to research hubs and hospitals. Nearby Burns Park adds playgrounds and pick-up games; weekend explorers can branch out to Ypsilanti or the rest of Washtenaw County for restaurants, parks, and festivals. Housing here ranges from classic mid-century designs to thoughtful contemporary infill, and the walkable grid makes impromptu dog walks, coffee runs, and block parties part of the routine.
