    Would 2nd that..... now if you are really loaded maybe a big city is ok but you really need a good amount of money to enjoy all the cool things in a downtown area. Thats even after college in your 20's or 30s as well.

    I actually enjoyed the U district.

    At least with Corvallis you’re close enough to something

    I mean as far as comparing Corvallis to Pullman. Corvallis is a major metropolis.

    I wouldn't go that far. Obviously Corvallis is bigger, about twice the size, but we are talking 33k population for Pullman and a 67k population for Corvallis. Pulman has 11 and a half or so sq miles and Corvallis has 14 something.

    when comparing college towns, they are [pretty similar. The difference is Pullman is 15 miles from being able to buy beer at 18. Or it was when I was hanging out there. lol.

    The difference is also what else you can drive to. 1 hour on i5 from Corvallis is Portland.

    Pullman is 5 hours from Seattle, with a whole lot of nothing in between.

    True, but by design. they don't want 18 yr olds driving drunk anywhere but right back to the store for more beer. Also, I think you are underestimating the draw of Wenatchee snatchee. ;)

    But yeah, Corvallis's location does have many more people in the surrounding areas.

    That population number includes the 35k+ students that attend there.

    I found people in Corvallis to be way nicer than people in the Portland Metro area on average.

    We used to drive to salem or Eugene to go to their malls every once in awhile.

    Not the most fun.

    Dallas drive in was cool.
