What are the State fans trying to argue here? If you love your town that’s fantastic. I’m glad you do. But the heavy majority does not and in a ranking list you will always be near dead last

Oxford could be taken over by aliens and people would still rate it higher than Stark. This is a meaningless rating but it is what it is

I'm always so surprised to see Auburn so low on these lists. if it is as small as people say it is, and the Name is literally the name of the college, you would think it would be the quintessential college town.

Please do tell. I've been to columbia countless times and its underwhelming. The 5th or 6th best city in south carolina

You’ve obviously never been to Auburn, AL. It’s like a sand dune in the middle of a desert.

Haha..Starkville has a female democratic mayor and is every bit as diverse as Oxford as a community.

Oxford and Starkville seem like twins to me, small towns with the downtown being away from the campus.
starkville actually has a more convenient setup with restaurants/bars opening up closer to campus.

MSU engineers making a lot more money than the Oxford virtue signaling liberal arts people.
MSU is the STEM nerd college in Miss homey.

Yet another poster who is talking out his arse.
fun fact, zero cows are bought and sold in Starkville while Baton Rouge has a rather large livestock market in the fricking middle of the city.
You stupid coonasses never cease to amuse with you ignorance.

7. Auburn- very small town with everything revolving around the college must like Oxford, just not quite as nice
Auburn looks more quaint and modern than Oxford, and has a more convenient setup with restaurants/bars right next to campus.
let's say you a student at ole miss and you got a fever, and the only prescription is pizza at the hip Soulshine Pizza Factory downtown.
You gonna have to make 1.2 mile walk from campus to just to get a pizza. then 1.2 mile back.
in auburn, you can walk across the street from campus and get a pie.
wow
wut is point of being in a small college town if you got to make a 2.5 mile round trip to the restaurant/bar district from campus.

How did Fayetteville end up getting the college back in the day?
Kind of seems like Little Rock would have.

Post-war, Fayetteville bid for the state U and won, just like the cities that host most other public universities in the country. Part of the reason it was selected was because of it's gorgeous hilltop/plateau location with views of the Ozarks in all directions.
Antebellum, there was a women's seminary and a school called Arkansas College in Fayetteville (which was along current-day "College Ave", and the street's actual namesake). While retreating ahead of the advancing Yankees, the Confederates burned most of Fayetteville, which was full of abolitionists anyway, including most of Arkansas College.
In summary, Fayetteville bid, had a killer site, and already had a history as a center of higher education. Being largely pro-union didn't hurt.

College station 9, what a joke. Everyone around colleystation has even teeth. 1-3-5-7 are missing with banjos in the background, what a dump.
