Pros

First of all, it is one of UC's. Good reputation at both national and international levels. Location is also great. Less than 2 hours to Bay area, and 30 minutes to the state capital. People are friendly and tolerant in general.

Cons

High living expenses. It is true that Davis is cheaper than most of places in Bay area, but life is kind of tough for low-level employees.
