I suspect you say that only partly in jest.
The students move on after four or five years, and the "townies" keep paying the taxes and running the businesses which support and in turn are supported by the ever changing student population.
It is a two way street.
As you get older, your tolerance for noise and garbage and questionable behavior gets smaller.
I don't know if there will ever be a solution, but both populations are dependent on each other in many more ways than they want to admit.
