I kinda of agree with that statement but not entirely. Sure, towns that have one-school are pressure cookers. That also doesn't mean that if you have two different schools or even more then two schools, you don't have pressure cookers. I do think though that it does help a little. Usually if there is two schools in a town, one will have a really good reputation and the other will be completely different. Not necessarily a bad rep but not the same. For example, one could be more of an academic school and the other a tech school, or one could be a science and technology school and the other could be more geared towards the sports. It all depends on the school and the people in the school. I think that if you have a wide variety of personalities, you are more likely to hear things. Though if there is more then one school, you'll still hear about it you'll just hear about it a little later or in less detail.
