Keith Bellows, editor in chief of National Geographic Traveler magazine shares Sell some small-to-medium-size college towns that ââ?¬Å?have a real ability to keep the young and the young-at-heart engaged in culture and fun.ââ?¬Â
Madison, Wis.
ââ?¬Å?The University of Wisconsin is big, but there’s a small-town feel here in the state’s capital (you can’t get away from the cheese, but you can go ice fishing on any winter’s day),ââ?¬Â Bellows says. ââ?¬Å?When you think of Madison, wedged between Mendota and Monona lakes, you think of a backwater place, but really there’s an incredible eclectic urban feel to it. It’s an interesting town with buildings by Frank Lloyd Wright.ââ?¬Â 800-373-6376; visitmadison.com
