> Everyone should live in Iowa City at least once in their lives.
This is trivially disprovable.
The world has a population of ~8,000,000,000 people. Assuming an average life expectancy of 65 years, if everyone lived in Iowa City (pop. 74,828 [0]) for just one day, its population would increase by 337,197, effectively quintupling its population.
It would diminish the city's walkability due to 6,743.9 buses [1] going into the city every day, or almost 4.68 every minute. And because visitors would be around 4x more people from outside Iowa City than from Iowa City itself, the average friendliness, safeness, intelligence and rebelliousness of its residents would all revert toward the global mean. And I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to extrapolate what would happen to Iowa City's affordability when it has to support all these additional people.
