Hate driving?

Ann Arbor made the top 15 cities for people who don't like commuting.

Average commute time: 18.4 minutes
Non-car commuters: 27.5 percent

Many of the city's major employers, such as the academic journal service JSTOR, the weather service Weather Underground, and the headquarters for Google's AdWords service are based downtown. That centralized location and Ann Arbor's compact nature make commuting easy for walkers, bikers, and bus riders.
