Well maybe that'll help keep the college kids on the straight and narrow since many succumb to the temptations of colege life. Maybe if those temptations are out of sight they will be out of mind. I'm not surprised at #2 since I live in Arizona and know how things are out here. Funny though, since kids at ASU can party really hard and recklessly. It is true when the article said:,"Tempe is a suburb with a stadium," has about 170,000 residents, 3/4 of whom are white."
Arizona LOVES things that way. It likes its politics conservative, its exhibition centers booked with gun shows and its residents WHITE. This can be a really horrible place to live. With the economic downturn it's next to impossible to leave. :( The other towns on the list don't seem too bad except for the ones with the high crime rates.
