This is the situation I'm in now - I attended the University of Wisconsin, loved the city enough to stick around Madison, and now have a great quality of life working remotely for a company where I'm the only employee in this timezone. There are other young people around, college sports, educational opportunities at the nearby technical college (starting night classes in their paramedic program this fall), and decent housing costs. The university facilitates a lot of this by opening up the student unions to alumni and paying members.
