Investing in College Towns

Hey everyone, 

I was looking into buying a duplex or single family home in a small college town of about 20,000 people and the school size is about 30,000. During the summer 90% of the university students leave, not sure if that means much if I advertise a 12 month lease. The town revolves about the University not to much here besides the University and a engineering facility. 

Just wondering everyones pros and cons of buying in a college town!
