While it's only natural to focus on academics and campus life when choosing a university, the world beyond the campus also matters. In addition to conveniences like grocery stores and post offices, the communities in your school's town or city have their own character.
Their unique culture can color your college experience, just as much as the school itself will. These university cities are also your link to the broader world around you, connecting you to community organizations and events such as concerts or sports tournaments.
