Noun[edit]
college town (plural college towns)
- A town or city that is dominated by its university population.
- 2013, Karen G. Weiss, Party School: Crime, Campus, and Community, page 7:
- “College towns,” where many of America's largest public universities (and most party schools) are located, are communities that would probably not exist without the presence of the university. In most college towns, there is a symbiotic relationship between the university and town, with both highly dependent upon college students for their survival.
