In the book The American College Town, Blake Gumprecht writes that a college town is a place where the number of four-year college students equals at least 20 percent of a town’s population. Muncie, Indiana, is one of nine college towns in Indiana. Across the country, these college towns exist the way they are economically and culturally because of the universities that exist there.
