>>1078396Reminds me of Champaign-Urbana. 50,000 college kids and a bunch of people besides that. Wiki says Champaign is 86k and Urbana another 42k, so basically 140k people but idk if that even covers students who don't have a permanent address there so it could be closer to 175k.
Anyway you can basically drive 10min in any direction and it's corn and soybean as far as the eye can see. It's definitely a "city" but you can go places within city limits that feel rural as fuck.
It's not a real city if it doesn't have an international airport.
