Settled next to a country club of the same name, Georgetown is a distinct suburb planted on the south side of Ann Arbor that has changed over the decades. "The neighborhood is in an interesting transition with younger families moving into an area with older residents. There are people of all ages. A lot of the clubs are family-oriented and multi-generational," says Laurel Schroeder, the General Manager of Georgetown Country Club. "There are tons of kids riding bikes, people walking their dogs and neighbors sitting on the porch talking to each other," she says. Many locals can walk to the neighborhood park, and the community rests close to downtown.
Georgetown is a popular southside neighborhood with an easy commute to downtown Ann Arbor.
Despite being right off Packard, Georgetown streets are quiet enough for kids to play out front.

Neighbors have single-family homes and multi-family units available
Much of Georgetown consists of rows of condos, brick-walled townhouses and amenity-filled apartments. However, the streets also contain subdivisions among traffic circles and cul-de-sacs. Beyond the sidewalks are ranch styles and houses with colonial influences. Many of these properties typically have attached garages. Most homes are on single lots, but the suburban-feel and cul-de-sacs help cut down on through traffic despite being right off Packard Street. A detached house can cost a buyer anywhere from $400,000 for a property in need of upgrades to over $600,000 for a renovated home with a finished basement. Condos often range from $225,000 to $275,000 on average. The housing stock is "very competitive when things do come up, which is not all that common," says Veronica Long, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty.
More classical condo options in Georgetown feature brick-faced buildings with outdoor patios.

A range of dining, nearby shopping and grocery options
Nearby are a variety of dining options for locals looking to sample the eclectic flavors of the city. "Down the street, we have YORK Ann Arbor; it's a wine store with a deli that serves great sandwiches. York has this big yard with music and art shows," Schroeder says. "Another great restaurant is Ricewood. It started as a food truck. They serve really fantastic barbecue bowls," Schroeder continues. "Biercamp is a really cool scene where you can sit in indoor or outdoor seating. They make their own sausage, cheese and brew beer," Schroeder says. Georgetown doesn't have a grocery store conveniently located in the neighborhood. The area is close to main roads and thoroughfares that take shoppers to Briarwood Mall and other key shopping areas. Residents can head in basically any direction to reach Whole Foods Market, Trader Joe's or Busch's Fresh Food Market within 3 miles. Locals can attend farmers markets, open year around.
