No doubt, half the time you're swerving around old ladies the other half of the time you're testing your brakes everytime a stupid student decides to cross the street w/on-coming traffic.
How is AA ghetto? It's far from ghetto, hell it's down right posh and ridiculously expensive, if anything.
Roads worse than Detroit? I dunno about that Stazi. I don't think anything can compare to good ol' Grand Blvd. Where exactly were you guys? I'll admit M14/US-23 suck arse, but the D is by far worse.
AA has a plethora of restaurants, parking would be a pain though. Most likely would have to park in a parking structure or perhaps up on Hill campus. Again, depends on where people are coming from. AA is quite off from where most of us live. I'm still down w/Novi or Royal Oak.
