Top College Sports Towns
Forbes created this list of the best college sports towns, based on the top 50 finishers in the Director's Cup, an award issued through the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics to schools based on their performance in every sport. From there, quality of life measures were considered, such as the city's surrounding public schools, crime rates and affordable housing.
