 I am proud to be omitted from any list that has College Station ahead of Austin, and Springfield ahead of, well, anywhere.

It seems like they're meaning "college town" in the sense that a lot of the community's identity comes from the fact that a particular college is located there. This would automatically exclude larger cities with identities that would overshadow any particular colleges in them.

Seriously, that list is total trash and I'm happy we're not on it.

they’re defining “college town” as anyone normal would.  despite having more than a couple of colleges located there, I don’t consider san francisco a “college town” .

They're obviously just trying to be inclusive, controversial, and edgy. Throwing a bone to the places that no body would ever really pick.

They most definitely are not.
Portland, ME
Lawton, OK
Rexburg, ID
Metarie, LA
Bellingham, WA
Rochester, MN
None of these towns have an identity with a university at all. In the case of Rexburg, the school was a community commerce until 2001. The dude said he only used census data and BLS statistics.
