Wayne
6.1
High score (8-10)
Wayne County has the College of Wooster — a well-regarded liberal arts school of 2,000 students with a distinctive required Independent Study program. Wooster's downtown is genuinely pleasant with walkable commercial streets. The county has both the college-town intellectual culture and the agricultural heritage that creates an interesting social mix if you engage both.

Wooster is the county seat and home to the College of Wooster, a respected liberal arts college. The county also has a significant Amish population. Wayne County is a strange mixture: progressive liberal arts college culture in Wooster and conservative Amish farming in the surrounding county. The two worlds don't mix much. Wooster itself is pleasant but small.
Lower score (below 6)
Wayne County's combination of a small liberal arts college and large Amish population creates an unusual but limited social environment. The College of Wooster is small enough that it doesn't generate the critical mass of social activity of a larger university. The Amish areas are closed by design. Outside these two worlds, the county is standard rural Ohio.
