It’s just a more put-together area and a lot more interesting. The beach, mountains, north, south, bay, food, cultural attractions, pro sports, overall academic community… vastly superior plus a ton less violent crime.
Agree. The UMD people are running rings around the U Mich folks. It’s eye opening.
Since when did College Park get a beach and mountains? 🤔

Michigan boosters should lay low and their insecurity is causing harm.
UMD has had one official NCAA championship in its history.
Michigan has 1/2 a championship since 1950
UMD has 1
Michigan has had 11 national championships (official). Moreover, let's see what happens in a few weeks as Michigan is currently ranked #1 in the nation this year. Maryland is ranked 46th.
Haha. All back before ww2 when nobody cared about football.
Not prestigious.

Maryland is a rich state. It’s not a fair comparison. If Maryland was poor like Michigan it would be sketchy too. Now Ann Arbor having such a high violent crime rate would be an issue for me.

I’m going to Michigan .. dark, cold, high crime, suicidal, poor state.
I’m going to UMD (ooooh sounds like university of medical doctor) lower crime, better weather, richer state, inside beltway of worlds most powerful city, more modern era football nattys, more daylight, happier for good reason.

Saying the same things over and over again won’t change the fact that your local school of choice is not comparable.
I’m going to Michigan = ooooh
I’m going to Maryland= ewww

“If you care what others think, want a great college town, and don't want to run the risk of getting mugged, Michigan.
You won’t get mugged, raped, or robbed in College Park since they don’t report them neighborhood scout.

Ann Arbor and the entire university has only gotten more bougie, for lack of a better word. The town offers a lot of art/music and has a foodie culture. All of the university housing and classrooms have all been refurbished since I was there in the late 80’s/90’s. College Park didn’t have that feeling when I was there for the recent football game, but I guess people look for different things.
