ann arbor is overrated.

The Michigan Review attempts to explain why it’s actually a good thing that the Ann Arbor Tenants Union is closing up shop. But they squander their credibilty with the first reason they give: “there aren’t that many major landlord-tenant problems.” The author hasn’t had a problem with his own landlord, so, like the Onion’s sociologist who concludes that the trend among American men is to have a pastrami sub for lunch at 1:30 every day, he decides that his experience applies to the A2 tenant population as a whole.

But it gets better. His landlord is Oppenheimer Properties, the company that refused to pay for the medical care of a student who fell through the porch floor of her Oppenheimer-owned building and broke a leg.
