Incredible University & Hospital. Hub Mall offers several food choices. Apartments above the shops gives one a feel for the college life.

The students seem friendly and from all over the world. U of A Hospital is cutting edge world leader in some fields. The professors I was fortunate enough to meet were knowledgeable and helpful.
