Yost Multifamily Homes & Duplexes for Sale

Yost, a neighborhood in Ann Arbor, is named after the legendary University of Michigan football coach Fielding Yost. This area is deeply intertwined with the university's athletic culture, housing many student-athletes and being within walking distance of several sports venues. The Yost Ice Arena, Crisler Center, and the iconic Big House football stadium are nearby, making it a lively spot, especially on game days when the streets are filled with music, barbecue aromas, and tailgating festivities. The neighborhood is highly walkable and bikeable, though it can get noisy on weekends due to the high concentration of student renters. While Yost is not as close to downtown Ann Arbor as some other neighborhoods, it has its own community of businesses on the university's south side. Argus Farm Stop offers locally grown produce, and the Packard Cafe serves as a popular study spot and evening tavern with regular trivia nights. Other notable local spots include Black Diesel Coffee and Side Biscuit, known for its chicken wings. Essential shopping is convenient with a small shopping center less than a mile south and a Trader Joe's about 2 miles away. The neighborhood features a mix of apartment buildings and historic homes, including brightly painted bungalows, Craftsman homes, and traditional colonials, mostly dating back to the 1900s. While many properties are rented out to students, there are also opportunities for homeownership. For families, the area is zoned for highly rated schools: Burns Park Elementary, Tappan Middle School, and Pioneer High School, the latter known for its strong sports program. Despite the bustling atmosphere, the crime rate in Yost is lower than the national average.
