Colleges & Universities A-Z University of Michigan

<p>So cold and so much snow...</p>

2

<p>^^^^^^What a silly question. We go to Florida.</p>

3

<p>study</p>

<p>10 char</p>

<p>lol dude where do you come from. you think places like NYC die or something in winter cuz of snow. AA is the same deal. Everything is still open. Parties are indoors which is not that odd. Sure it sucks to get to where you gotta go but parties still there and all places to eat and shop still open.</p>

5

<p>I live in Texas, we don’t have snow and it doesn’t get very cold. So what do people do for sports during the winter? Just not play outside?</p>

6

<p>Well, you can ski downhill and cross country, ice skate, sled, toboggan, ice fish, snowmobile. Indoors there is basketball, ice hockey, and volleyball. Now c’mon, you must have heard of some of these things?</p>

<p>If you’re referring to Mt. Brighton, it’s not exactly “downhill”.</p>

8

<p>Sure it is. It is a hill and you go down it. LOL. You can drive a few hours to ski areas in northern Michigan.</p>

9

<p>You play and watch hockey. Alot.</p>

10

<p>my friends and i play hockey on the huron river sometimes.</p>

<p>and have you never heard of indoor sports facilities??</p>

11

<p>

</p>

<p>No, not really. Ann Arbor isn’t a snowy place.</p>

12

<p>Why at the hate?
I play soccer and football outside. Last time I played hockey was 7 years ago. I’ve played like 3 times total.</p>

13

<p>lol to us people who live around here we just find it funny that someone would ask this. don’t take any offense to it. no hate. but yea man indoor sports facilities got tennis, bball, and anything else a gym would have. Besides sports you got all the places in AA to hang out and the parties are still there.</p>

14

<p>Theres always things to do through all seasons. Though since you’ll be in Metro Detroit there may be less surrounding nature outdoor activities as other areas, but many malls.</p>

15

<p>Are you saying AA is metro Detroit?</p>

16

<p>Are you saying AA is metro Detroit? </p>

<p>Let’s just say the general area is not like the Twin Cities. Oh wait, maybe like Medford/Woodbury. But Ann Arbor has it’s own “downtown” area geared strongly toward college students.</p>

<p>Ann Arbor is not as cold as the Twin Cities but has significantly less sunshine. Maybe slightly less snow.</p>

17

<p>We all know Ann Arbor is in metro Detroit, and this is coming from a resident of Lansing.</p>

18

<p>what? AA is not metro Detroit. It’s a different city by itself. I LIVE IN metro Detroit, which means basically novi, bloomfield, bham, livonia, ect, namely residential areas with malls and other stuff you see in suburbia. you gotta take couple freeways through nothing but countryside for about an hour to get to AA. AA is its own thing man and I must say having been there its awesome.</p>

19

<p>ann arbor is not really defined as metro detroit.</p>

<p>if you want to be technical,
The United States Office of Management and Budget defines the Detroit–Warren–Livonia Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) as the six counties of Lapeer, Livingston, Macomb, Oakland, St. Clair, and Wayne.</p>

<p>not all of southeastern michigan = metro detroit. not only that, ann arbor is definitely more of it’s own entity from the metro area.</p>

<p>Ann Arbor is a nice city, and known to be a top college town. Though within metro of Detroit, Ann Arbor is that city. As I know, many in the Detroit metro are glad to know a top university reside within their metro.</p>
