I graduated from Texas A&M in 2007 and College Station is very nice. The locals are good hard working people and there isn't too much crime in the area. There are a number of nice affordable subdivisions in Coll Station (Pebble Creek, Castlegate, Raintree, Emerald Forest and others I can't think of off hand). The nightlife scene is generally college oriented, but fun as the College kind of dominates the town. As far as k-12 schools, A&M consolidated is a pretty nice school from most accounts and the parents I have talked to seem happy with it

Overall, the good:

Nice weather most of the year
low crime
friendly and helpful people
nice roads
world class university
affordable housing
highly educated people

the bad

small
not much in the performing arts
very hot in mid/ late summer
about 120 miles from the ocean

Hope this helps you out and I can answer more questions if you need

Good: plenty of Freebird's locations

Bad: you're surrounded by Aggies
