<p>I didn’t know that even very large cities are called “college towns.” I kind of thought that “college towns” were small/med size cities that essentially exist (or get attention) because of the college/univ that is there. I thought it meant that most businesses/residents exist in that town because there is a particular school in the area. </p>
<p>If I had ever been asked what the max population of a “college town” is, I probably would have said something in the vicinity of 100k…something like South Bend as being about the max size.</p>
<p>I’m not saying what is or what isn’t. That was just what my thoughts were about the meaning of a “college town.” </p>
<p>I don’t think I ever would have thought that Los Angeles is a “college town”…but I guess I’ve learned something new.</p>
