Ypsilanti Overview

Whether you like the hustle and bustle of university life, the quiet settings of great outdoor spaces, or prefer to enjoy Midwest history, life in Ypsilanti apartments has plenty to offer. Eastern Michigan University has more than 20,000 students, set against a preserved historic Ypsilanti downtown that evokes memories of America's great industrial history. Ypsilanti is close to Detroit, making it easy to get out of town for business or family holidays.

What is the history of Ypsilanti?

Ypslanti was founded in 1823, and was named after a Greek general whose exploits impressed the city's founder. Thanks to its location on the Huron River, Yspilanti was in turn a river trade, milling, and industrial city. Many of the city's beautiful historic buildings have been converted to downtown shops.

How is the weather in Ypsilanti?

Ypsilanti is a great city to live in for people who enjoy all four seasons of the year. It does get cold in the winter, with an average high temperature of 32 degrees in January. The mild summers make up for the cold, with the average high in July hitting only 85 degrees.

How do I get around town?

People who choose Ypsilanti apartments downtown or near the university can easily walk to shops and restaurants. For people traveling to and from Ypsilanti, there is an Amtrak station less than 10 miles away in Ann Arbor. Detroit Metropolitan Airport is about a half hour away.

What is the Ypsilanti commute like?

People who prefer buses take advantage of the AATA bus system that travels in and around Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti. Ypsilanti is just off Route 94, making trips to Ann Arbor a breeze. Michigan Avenue, which runs from Detroit to Chicago, runs directly through downtown Ypsilanti.

What are the local media outlets?

People in search of classic rock tune into 107.1 WQKL, while those who want some local news mixed in with jazz and other soft sound turn their dials to 89.1 WEMU. The Eastern Michigan University student paper, the Eastern Echo, features both university and local news, while the Detroit Free Press offers local, national and international news.

Why live in Ypsilanti, MI?

Ypsilanti is a great combination of university town and historic Midwest city. The university and the city host several cultural events, and food options range from classic American to a wide variety of international cuisines. When you need to get away from it all or want to expand your horizons, Ypsilanti's location between Ann Arbor and Detroit gives you several options.

What Ypsilanti landmarks should I see?

Ypsilanti is home to Eastern Michigan University, with over a hundred buildings and more than 20,000 students. The city also has a community college, and is a short trip away from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In addition to a number of historic buildings, Ypsilanti also features a water tower that stands out over the city and serves as a starting point for locals to give directions.

What is there to do around Ypsilanti?

People in Ypsilanti who love the outdoors enjoy several parks and nearby Ford Lake. North Bay Park has a large dirt trail system with a wooden board walk that makes you forget there is a bustling university city just around the corner. People who enjoy the arts can visit a downtown theater, or attend events on the Eastern Michigan University campus.

Any annual festivals or Ypsilanti events to know?

The Yankee Air Museum offers not only a fantastic aviation display, but rides on authentic WWII planes. People living in Ypsilanti get away from it all by visiting one of several resorts and beaches on the Great Lakes.

Where is the best place to move in Ypsilanti?

Because Ypsilanti is both a university town and an historic city, there are several apartment options available. People who want to be near the university can choose between large apartment buildings with lots of amenities to small efficiency apartments in converted historic homes in College Heights. Depot Town is north of historic downtown Ypsilanti and provides more open space for those who want a quieter setting.
