[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]  What's especially odd about this particular discussion is that even if one were to pick a college based on that dubious criterion, the choice of going to Iowa (and easily settling in Chicago afterward) or going to Arizona (and easily settling in Phoenix afterward) is hardly a clear-cut argument for the Arizona option, to be polite. (And before ideologues chime in to point out that Chicago's population is stagnant, its population of white-collar college graduates is growing -- there's never been a better time to be a young college grad in Chicago - and there are vastly more jobs in metro Chicago than in metro PHX).

Apparently new grads want to live in Phoenix, as well as Chicago. Some of you keep responding in here with completely out of date information. It's not very helpful. Oddly Iowa isn't on the list.

Huh?  This survey you linked found that more new grads want to live in Chicago than in Phoenix.   And while Iowa City isn't on the list (like most university towns) nor is Tucson.  If you're trying to refute the previous statement that the choice between settling in Chicago and in Phoenix doesn't clearly favor Phoenix, you've just undercut your own argument.  More grads would prefer to live in Chicago than in Phoenix.   Read it again.  [/quote]

Here's another list for you since you can't acknowledge that Phoenix is a desirable place to live with a good job market.  Chicago isn't a clear favorite [b]no matter how many times you insist it is[/b]. Have you ever been to Phoenix or Arizona?

This is a conversation between multiple posters.  But anyway, I've not heard anyone say Arizona isn't fine, just people refuting the idea that it's hands-down preferable.[/quote]
