3. Austin, Texas
UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS
If the university was located in, say, Abilene or Galveston, the city could still survive on pure originality and its status as the state capital. But Austin and UT go hand in hand. The vibe given off by students meshes with the liberal attitudes of many residents. A popular bumper sticker implores keep austin weird. DEAN'S LIST: Football is a religion in the state of Texas, but the university is good at everything, as befits a school that Sports Illustrated last year ranked as having the country's best Division I athletic program. THE SPOT: Sixth Street, one of the most famous streets in the world and home to more bars than one could physically get through in any given night. REQUIRED COURSE: The South by Southwest Music and Media Conference, which takes over the city each March, is the showcase for up-and-coming bands. Established acts also polish their chops at the festival. EXTRA CREDIT: Though known for its incredible live-music scene, Austin -- which has more movie screens per capita than any city in the U.S. and nearly 80 production companies -- is a Hollywood incubator too. Actors Matthew McConaughey, Renee Zellweger and Owen Wilson are UT grads, as are directors Joel Coen and Robert Rodriguez. Actress Sandra Bullock and writer-director Mike Judge live nearby. Richard Linklater's seminal Slacker and Judge's cult favorite Office Space were shot in town. IF AUSTIN WERE A CELEBRITY IT WOULD BE...Chris Rock -- a little loud, a little outrageous and popular with every clique.
