Pros

Working at UC Davis provides a stimulating set of people to interact with, a really great small-town feel, and excellent health benefits, along with a relatively lower cost of living in comparison with the bay area.

Cons

Cons include feeling somewhat isolated from a larger city and living among a relatively homogeneous population of people, with respect to culture and ethnicity.

Pros

It's very easy going place. Nice place to live in. Professors are not very demanding compared to other schools.

Cons

It could be boring for many people. You have to motivate yourself because everybody is too chilled here.
