A2: Gay Friendly

By

GayWired.com has named Ann Arbor as one of five “surprisingly gay small towns”: “An upbeat college town, the home of Edmund White’s alma mater, the University of Michigan, is a haven of tolerance, just 35 miles west of Detroit (population 115,000). Women drink, play pool, and have dinner at the miniscule, two-level, lesbian-adored Aut Bar. Thrilling restaurants abound and once you’re ready to up the ante, head to gay-friendly club Necto. Ann Arbor is also home to a slew of LGBT groups, from Ann Arbor Queer Aquatics to the Lesbian Moms Network.” [Source]
