I currently attend Upper Iowa University as a Division 2 soccer player. Fayette Iowa is a perfect college town to interact and meet new people. Due to its very small populated area, the students and community are able to connect and interact. It brings people together and encourages everyone to be supportive of their interests. Since there are limited things to do in town it helps to get out of your comfort zone and keep yourself busy. I wouldn't make any overall changes rather than a couple food places but in general fayette makes room to fit in someones heart.
If you are a small town person, then this is the place for you. Fayette consists of two bars, one gas station, a few repair shops and small stores, and one hotel. The atmosphere is very quiet, but with the college there really is never a dull moment.
People are nice and great. There is few businesses here and would like to see more in the area so people have more things to do. The college is great located in Fayette, Iowa.
