I live in Ann Arbor and love it here. There are tech companies that operate out of this town but none of them besides Duo I would work for. Even then I don’t think I would apply. Working remote has enabled me to live here and still have a great job.
When I did work for a startup in town a couple of years ago we were constantly talking about how to entice UoM grads to stay after college.
The biggest industry here seems to be the hospital system. Throw a rock at a crown and you’ll probably hit a few physicians.
A2 has a ton to offer for being such a small town. Personally, I love the small town feel but still manages to have all the amenities of a larger city.
As long as you can handle the Michigan winters the summers are very temperate. There’s a lot to do here especially if you aren’t afraid to travel up north and enjoy the outdoors.
- epage 5y agoI loved Ann Arbor when I visited when I was hired at Duo and it has raised my interest in moving to Michigan (once a job allows it, my current remote gig has limited locations due to logistics) but I doubt it will be A2 just because of the cost of living. One of my interests is to drop in cost of living from Austin but Ann Arbor is not far behind.
