<p>I know that the atmosphere of a college often affects prospective students. But nowadays campuses are becoming self-sufficient centers of living whether or not they are located in the city or in the boondocks. What are the academic, social, and economic (employment, internships & off-campus housing) advantages of living in each of these areas?</p>
<p>I go to a college in the boondocks(4 hours from closest city), and I think its actually really easy to get an apartment here within walking distance of campus. </p>
<p>In terms of internships, my university is very large, and has a very good internship program, and relationships with employers.</p>
<p>I suppose the interships and employment vary rom university to university though</p>
