Ones by the lake are nicest as are the privates. They are building new ones but not for next year. Most kids live off campus after a year and the choices are endless and fun–the best part of UW.

Food is decent and cheap. Lots of good off-campus places within a short walk so lots of kids eat out too.

Sports are huge–football, bball, hockey all sellouts. Concerts, bars, coffee houses, movies all within a short walk.

I think who you hang with is more your choice. People are friendly.
