I think a big deciding factor is kids/age. I'm young and still prefer the city life, so 1 college just isn't going to cut it for me.

I would agree that kids and age play a big part in the appeal of Manhattan for people outside of college age range, but it has other things going for it besides just K-State. https://livability.com/best-places/top-100-best-places-to-li...

Kansas City is only a 2 hour drive away to go do bigger city stuff.

Two hours is a looong drive outside of Kansas.

We happened to drive through Kansas on the way to a Colorado wedding, during prom season. It was interesting to see all these prom kids dressed up and meeting at truck stops to take pictures or carpool.
