Huh? What about Ames? It may not be as big but it has some things that Des Moines doesn't. Like fresh water, live trees, and good sports teams.

Well, I'll grant you the water. I lived in Des Moines much of my life, and the water is terrible. However, there are plenty of trees in Des Moines, one simply needs to know where to look. In any case, when one considers things such as night life, and the capability of the residents to carry on a conversation more complicated than, "so what are you taking this semester," given the subject is something other than engineering, computers, or "don't the Hawkeyes suck", Ames can't compare to Iowa City, Des Moines, or even Davenport. Sorry.

Don't forget to mention the best bus system in the world. Okay so I haven't personally witnessed too many other bus systems, but CyRide is prety decent. I'm not biased or anything, I just work there.
