[quote=Anonymous]Thinking for a minute about the setting for each -- Madison is much larger and more spread out than Ann Arbor. Both are nice, but Ann Arbor is very much defined by the university. A prototypical small college town (with a really great summer art fair). Compact and very walkable, with fabulous parks, rivers, and trails surrounding the city. Detroit is less than an hour away. Madison (as the state capital) has more of its own identity separate from the university, although the city is still relatively small. It's nice having access to the lakes and trails that surround them. The restaurant scene is probably a little better than Ann Arbor's. Milwaukee is about 90 minutes away. Climate is similar. You'll get more clouds and snow in AA, but Madison is colder. To me Madison feels more "Midwestern" than Ann Arbor and a little less pretentious--probably because there's less of an east coast presence.[/quote]
