Why are Electric Guitars so much easier to play than acoustics?

I am just beginning to learn to play Guitar. At home, I practice on an acoustic (Washburn), but my friends and I often play at school during lunch. Several people keep their guitars at school, and we like to get together and jam for a while. I have noticed, however, that I seem to play much better on an electric than on my acoustic. Why is this? I think I read somewhere about electric guitars having thinner strings, but is that the only reason?

Electric guitars can have thinner strings, plus the neck is thinner, and the strings are closer to the frets.
