It's a personal preference. I'm sure for those that go to a university within a city have a better chance at getting work in the community or something.

I get the best of both worlds at my Uni as it is a campus uni but in the centre of London. The campus is concentrated and all of the halls and stuff are on campus along with shops bars lecture theatres and classes, but then 10 minutes ont he tube and its Helllooo central London.

It really depends on how good the school, not necessarily it's location

You'd be surprised how many people make a decision based on location of the campus.

It depends, some people that enjoy an urban atmosphere might want to go to a city school but there's other people that enjoy a more rural setting and might want to go to school basically in bfe.

I'd prefer to go to a school in a college town that's not too far from an actual city though, and all the colleges I'm applying to are in those settings so I'm good. :)

It depends on what type of person you are.

I like urban campuses, but not ones that don't have a campus at all (BU for instance).

I don't like campuses that are spread out through a big city, I rather it be in a medium sized college town(Whatever that is)

I'm planning on going to a college in a small town that's about a half-hour from one big city and an hour from another.
