Ypsilanti is a progressive city with a great community vibe and arts scene.  Coming for work or play? The locals generally refer to Ypsilanti as “Ypsi”.  The history of Ypsi is still present and vibrant in today’s shops, dining and entertainment scene. The downtown area consists of three distinct districts “Downtown” , “Depot Town”, and "W. Cross/Campus Town".  Only minutes apart they utilize their beautifully preserved historic areas to add interest to the variety of cultures present in the art, music and shopping. Ypsilanti also expands beyond the downtown districts to include 23,000+ acres of public park and recreation areas that help make up the Washtenaw County area.  We are just minutes from golfing, mountain biking, canoeing, hiking or natural scenery you can relax in.  The City of Ypsilanti has 22,000 residents that keep it going everyday of the week.  We’re also a proud recipient of a Michigan Cool Cities award. Come enjoy the scene and all the interesting people who live and work here.  You will find an amazing amount of talent and energy in its residents and business people.  Join in.

Here is some good information on who and where we are.
