Go to school in Ann Arbor, MI, and you’re bound to be around some fellow smarties. After all, Ann Arbor has been ranked as the most educated city in America. Makes sense that the smartest coach in college football, Jim Harbaugh, is the University of Michigan’s coach. “The Big House,” Michigan’s football stadium, can hold over 109,000 spectators and has set numerous attendance records.

They said it:
Payton, Grew up in Ann Arbor:
"Ann Arbor, Michigan will always have a special place in my heart. Walking to the Big House with tens of thousands of people is an amazing experience. Downtown Ann Arbor has amazing food and people watching that can keep you busy for hours. The campus itself is HUGE, it’s incredible how much land the university has stockpile. There is tons of diversity in Ann Arbor as well with the hospital and the university bringing in people from all places. I don’t know of many places that are better than Ann Arbor in the Fall."
