Having trouble narrowing down my college list

Well, my ideal size is 5,000, but the problem is that I haven’t found a ton of schools that are that size that meet my other criteria. So, I am willing to go smaller as long as it doesn’t FEEL too small. What I mean by this: Trinity and Holy Cross are roughly the same size, but Holy Cross felt way smaller than Trinity. What didn’t help was that all the students at Holy Cross looked sort of alike. So, given that, are there any colleges that will really feel small?

(Note: I have yet to visit Wesleyan and Williams, but will be doing that once the school year starts; I would not visit Davidson unless accepted, because it is far away and my family is just too busy.)
