Great

Very satisfied with everything except price (should be a bit lower now that the University’s wellness center is accessible by folks outside of Munger residents).

Interprofessional Collaboration with Fantastic Amenities

Munger is a fantastic living environment if you don't mind walking 15-20 minutes to the medical school every day (and/or allotting time to take the bus). Each resident has their own bedroom and bathroom, but shares a spacious common space/kitchen with 5-6 roommates. Your roommates are typically from other graduate programs, seeing as the purpose of Munger is to promote interprofessional collaboration and communication. In terms of amenities, there are beautiful study rooms, a gym, a movie theater, game room, and small store as well. It is extremely secure as well.

Amazing place but no windows in bedrooms

This is a great place to live. Fair warning the bedrooms don't have windows but the living area is spacious and well lit, with lots of sunlight. Kitchens are huge, all amenities are in-house and included in rent.
Munger is also a great place to meet new people from different disciplines at UMich. Great place for international students!

Spacious, practical and affordable

Munger is likely the best bang for the buck in Ann Arbor. The rent is very reasonable and includes a fully furnished apartment with great amenities and tons of space. Our kitchen has 2 of everything including fridges, ovens, microwaves. The building is very close to Ross and close to many restaurants. The only drawbacks are that there is no parking and you can't pick all you roommates. However, I've heard very few horror stories about bad roommates

On campus housing

Everything here is brand new and it's a great price. It's been fun living with a big group of people but also having my own room/bathroom.

Munger - Great Place to Live

I've loved living in Munger. It's a great value (own room and bathroom in a modern building) and so close to Ross. I rarely see my roommates, other than my other Ross roommate.

Central Campus Reviews

76 reviews
Pros: 8 minute walk to Ross or downtown. Access into residence halls, suites, and rooms very secure. Maintenance managed by school so never have to shovel snow. Across from the Student Union that has fast food restaurants and Starbucks.

Cons: Have to walk a few blocks to get to real restaurants (like 2-3 blocks).
The main strip of stores/restaurants/etc. is only a 15 minute walk. The football stadium is close. Packard street (runs alongside the building) drops you off on State St which takes you to the highway. Travel is easy. The neighborhood has not felt unsafe to me at any point, though I generally don't travel the area between the areas of 2am and 6am lol so I can't vouch for those times. It seems to be college students and families mostly.
Germantown is geographically located in the heart of a U-M students' universe. Equally centered between downtown's bars & restaurants and Central Campus, living in Germantown allows for easy access to Ann Arbor's student essentials.
Extremely fun neighborhood, with lots of excellent restaurants and bars/clubs within walking distance. A 10-minute walk to Ross and other popular housing spots such as The Yard and 618 South Main.
Parking is a bit of a pain in the butt but there are ZipCars in many locations. That is the way to go! Don't bother bringing up a car. You're going to need a car to go to groceries.
Love all the restaurants and bars that are near us, as well as the fact that we are just a quick walk to campus. Neighborhood feels very safe, even late at night.
Film, booze, quick food, brunch, pharmacy, grocery, late night pizza, theatre (film, plays, musical artists), etc., etc all within a 10 minute walk.
7 minute walk from Ross, 10 minute from the Bus.

Its centrally located to bars, restaurants, classes, and everything else you need.
