Noise
I live in a smaller city called Halifax in Nova Scotia Canada, about 360,000 people. The city has 4 universities 3 of them 5-10 minutes from one another walking. What I am getting at is these schools have been there since about 1802, 1818, and one around 1920. The 4th university is about a 30 min walk or 10 minute drive away and has been there since 1878. These Universities have been there long before the people who live in the surrounding neibourhood. If you dont like a little bit of noise it does not make sense to move into an area in the middle of three universities. There are plenty of places to live that are not surrounded by students. If it gets to the point where complaints have to be made constantly, I think I would just want to move out of the surrounding area, its not as if these people did not notice the schools when moving in. When there are that many students in such a small area there is bound to be some noise.
There is a huge importation of students in the area, more the 50% of the students in the city are from outside of it and all live around campus do to lack of university housing. There will always be some noise, its something to be expected.
