Just okay

Management is pretty chaotic--lots of turnover, constantly understaffed, hard to get them to come fix things or answer questions. But, they're also not overbearing and constantly enforcing annoying little rules, so that's nice. Material quality of apartment is also just okay, not the newest but not falling apart (at least in my unit). I know it bothers my partner more than me. Parking (for residents and guests) is effortless which I value a lot. More affordable than similar stuff south of the river, but they keep trying to raise rents so that benefit may be evaporating. The pool is nice, storage pretty easy.

I like the location because I'm older and want quiet and access to nature, which this location provides nicely. Good mix of grad students, families, older people. It's a long walk to school but a very easy bike ride. Not convenient to stores or bars or restaurants. Feels like a safe area to me but I'm a male-presenting person who's used to living in big cities.

Wonderful complex

This apartment complex is a short drive away from the medical campus. Great value for the spacious floorplan. Pet-friendly and very responsive management. Super close to the bus stop, and a quick drive to the North Campus gym. I've lived here all 4 years of med school and it's been a wonderful place to live.

Traver Crossing Apartment

I was looking for a quiet apartment that would be good for me and my dogs - and I have been so happy at Traver Crossing. It couldn't be a better fit for us.

The building and appliances, etc., are older. But management has been very responsive to any issues I've had. If you're looking for a more 'luxury' apartment, Traver Crossing probably isn't for you. There is, unfortunately, also no in-unit laundry and machine prices aren't cheap ($1.75 per wash/dry - BUT you can pay by card and don't need to worry about quarters).

If you're looking for a friendly, affordable, quiet apartment with a TON of storage space, I would definitely recommend Traver Crossing. The fenced in dog park is also a huge plus for us.

I was drawn to Traver Crossing over other dog-friendly apartments in Ann Arbor because of the location. If you enjoy natural spaces/trails/being close to the river, you can't get much better in Ann Arbor for a dog-friendly spot. We love being close to the Leslie Science & Nature Center and only a mile from the Argo Nature Trail, one of Ann Arbor's most popular trails. As a runner, it was important to me that there are so many beautiful routes (of a huge range of distances) that are readily accessible from Traver Crossing.

I was a bit worried about the proximity to the train track that parallels Plymouth Rd, but have not been disturbed by the trains at all.

No hassles, good value

Spacious apartments with outdoor space (e.g., patio). Very quiet community (never hear anything), pet-friendly. Easy parking included in rent, close to bus lines, grocery store, and medical campus (30 min walk, 7 min bus ride, easy drive). Good management company.

Affordable with good management

We've been very happy living here this past year. Having lived at some of the other apartments in the area, I feel that Traver Crossing is the best combination of value and good management. The apartments are well maintained, and the service techs are pretty prompt when fixing things that break. Overall, very pleased.

Beautiful, quiet, serene complex

I chose this complex because I am a dog-owner and wanted a place that was pet friendly. The complex is surrounded by trees and away from the road so it is calm and quiet here. There is a dog park in the complex for your pets (if you have one) and plenty of green areas to comfortably walk your pet. Also, nature lovers would appreciate that the Leslie Science and Nature Center, which includes beautiful wooded trails, is essentially in our backyard.

Pricing of the complex is similar to places near the hospital, however, I feel like I get much more "bang for my buck" with the large floor plans and extra large closets!

Traver Crossing is right off Plymouth and Barton Drive and right on the #2 busline to the hospital or downtown. It's also a nice walk to the medical campus on a nice day.

North Campus Reviews

If you want to be close to the hospital, then this is definitely the place for you! It is one of the more affordable areas that is within walking distance to the hospital and is close to many other medical students. There is a restaurant or two nearby, and the walk to Kerrytown (Farmer's market, small grocery store, etc.) is about 10-15 minutes. White coat is definitely a hike from the main downtown area.
It is quiet and removed from the downtown area, which can be a plus and a minus. I personally find it nice to be able to concentrate and study. It is also convenient to be living with many other med students in White Coat and be close to the medicals school building.
This apartment is about a 10 minute walk from the hospital/medical school, which is super convenient. There is a park nearby, which is great for running, walking dogs, and riding bikes. Also, it take about 15 minutes to get to Kerry town, the farmer’s market, etc.
North Campus is the place to be!! Lots of trails and nature for walking, NCRB gym nearby, grocery stores, gas, food, and more. Mostly graduate students up here so quieter but also within 10 min drive to downtown. There's always parking too.
Close access to running trails with a great neighborhood feel.
I enjoy being near the river and close to walking trails!
The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and well-maintained. There are tons of medical students around the white coat area, so it is easy to socialize and meet up with your peers. However, I wish there were more restaurant/cafe/store options nearby.
Very friendly, neighborly community. Very few undergraduate students are here, so the pace of life is generally more tame.
