Speaking only about the campus & town, no commentary on academics. And excluding major urban centers and university towns enveloped by major metros. So no Ohio State or UCLA or Texas.

IMO, Madison is about as good as it gets.

AA is good, but somewhat overhyped. Town is great, campus is meh. East Lansing is pretty blah. Campus mostly feels like a big suburb. Bloomington is very charming. West Lafayette sucks. Charlottesville is very nice. Burlington is even better.
