Like all good schools (and there are many) Michigan has undergraduate degree programs that range from top notch to average.  None are below average/poor.

If your kid is heading into a profession where an advanced degree is required then don’t go for undergrad.  Save the money and spend it on grad school — unless the cost of attending as an OOS student is no big deal to your family.  In my view, spending $300K for an undergrad degree is nuts unless $300K is simply not a big deal.  And, for many it is not a big deal.  Good for them.

Ann Arbor is a nice sized City and reasonably safe.  The Campus (save for the big freshman dorm area added later) is pretty and like many large schools - nicely integrated with the City.  Is what the school experience supplies worth the extra $200K over say UofMaryland?  No - of course not.

Michigan is not, “Like all good schools.”   Your comment reads like there are many schools in Michigan’s league.  There aren’t.
