College station
The worst college town in terms of quality of life without a doubt is

If you’re not Mormon, why would you live in Provo? Just commute from SLC. I did that for a few years and it’s one of the shortest commutes I’ve had (people drive so fast there it’s under 35 minutes door to door). Plus, then you get those sweet zero traffic sundays when only the sinners are out and about

Makes sense, but only in a scenario when you have no other options,

Provo’s not even the weirdest worst town in Utah. Logan is way worse. They think Provo is full of backsliders.

Not true. Yale doesn't have a massive football program and New Haven sux. But I'd still go to Yale just because it's Yale.
Ithaca NY is also pretty bad.
all of these are better than State College
Tuscaloosa? West Lafayette? Oxford,MS ?
those are some truly miserable places to live
could be, never been there. Why is it that so many of the horrible places to live have massive college football programs?

Provo.
If you drink coffee, you are ostracized. Not just by your colleagues and others at BYU but by most people in Provo.Not sure about that considering that people at byu have certain customs that bring people together and enhance QoL.
For example, from what I've heard there are these 2 things called soaking and jump buddies that is the epitome of solidarity and helping friends out. For the dominant religion at that university there are certain activities that are 100% forbidden before marriage. BUT, the religion doesn't forbid them from taking their clothes off and getting on top of each other and it doesn't forbid inserting "it" because the forbidden activity involves repeated thrusting (only then is it forbidden). How does the community come together to help these 2 desperate souls in need of a release? You get a jump buddy. A friend who will jump on the bed so that... you get the idea. Friends helping out friends. In a weird way. I heard about this once and thought that it was a joke. Then I heard about another time and can only conclude that its possible that this happens or that its an elaborate joke that people at BYU tell everyone.
Another one is that they don't really have a good way of "showing the goods" in public because of how their religion works and rules and what not. So, supposedly, people get together and organize parties where they all take their clothes off and guys stand on one side and girls stand on the other side and you get to see the "goods".
I'm still on the fence of whether these stories are real or an elaborate prank they tell other people but if true then its an example of the community coming together to fix certain problems they have.
