I have been interested in this topic ever since Money Magazine did an article about how university towns are great places to retire. Do you live in a university town, and if so, do you find it a great place to live? I am relatively curious about living in one. Would it be a great place to raise kids? Do these towns tend to have a more academic "vibe," and therefore better schools? We LOVE where we live, but we would like to move somewhere with more kids when we have kids. I wonder if a university town would fit the bill...the overall crowd would seem to be younger. Anyways, I'm curious to hear from people who live in one of these towns.
