College Station, TX does not come close to fitting the picture you just painted; on the contrary, the city's reality is a complete cultural opposite.
Having been a faculty member at A&M (before accepting a position at another university several months ago), I can confidently state that our faculty's acclaimed membership in academe has meshed well with the city's very educated populace ( LINK).
Moreover, most of our fans do have a real connection to our university. When I read about the norm at other schools (e.g., posts like yours), I realize how special what we have in Aggieland is.

The thing is, the OP doesn't realize the depth of hypocrisy in his post...no school is more characterized by sidewalk fans than USC. The vast majority of their fans not only couldn't get accepted to USC, they've never even set foot on the USC campus. Due to USC playing their home games off-campus at the Coliseum.

Should never be mentioned in a survey/post about best college towns.
I did my time in CS, but it wasn't special at all. Good people, though.
