[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]University of Florida or University of Georgia for business/finance. Both out of state, both full pay at almost the same total cost. [/quote]

Georgia, better college town and doesn’t rely on online classes.[/quote]

What’s better about Athens? Genuinely curious. They both have about the same size population, similar size universities, similarly ranked universities (guessing they draw a very similar type of student), very similar demographics, similar numbers in terms of HHI, poverty. I’m just wondering what sets Athens apart as a better college town?[/quote]

I believe UF is much higher ranked.[/quote]

Correct. So, again, what makes Athens a better college town? [/quote]

It routinely shows up on the list of best college towns because of its charm, music scene (where REM got its start), and hug number of bars and restaurants.  It’s also just an hour from Atlanta[/quote]

Gainesville also has a big music scene where a lot of famous bands got their start, and a huge number of bars and restaurants and is not that far from several major cities: Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville...I just am not convinced Athens is better. [/quote]

Much better weather than Gainesville (swampy and humid) [b]more to do, [/b]shops, restaurants, bars, close to Atlanta, more bars. Biggest pro is business school isn't online. Pro of Florida is it's cheaper. Everyone loves them both so it's hard choice. [/quote]

Like what? Gainesville is bigger than Athens and UF is bigger than UGA so if anything one would think there’d be more to do in Gainesville.[/quote]

True.  OP could flip a coin lol [/quote]
