[UA] A place to start my UA campaign

Of those two states, I'd pick Albuquerque and use the whole 
Postmodern West (the atomic tests, the Jornada de Muerto, Roswell, 
Geronimo, etc.) as my backdrop. UNM isn't much, but your players 
won't know that. Lots of Native American magic, both real and wannabe.

Phoenix is a great city, but doesn't even pretend to have a good university.

Dakotas -- no cities, no pagans (except Sioux traditionalists), no 
universities.

For a big, underutilized city in the North, how about Denver?

Or, if your players aren't IN NOMINE fans, you might use Austin, 
Texas. Huge pagan/New Age community, great university (Univ. of Texas 
has one of the largest rare book collections in the world), much 
Texan weirdness.

Cleveland, Ohio, is also very under-utilized, and has Case Western University.

There are probably people on this list who know Pittsburgh much 
better than I, but by reputation it has a grossly corrupt government, 
two good universities (Pitt and Carnegie-Mellon), and 300 years of 
history.
