Davis

Davis is located in the California Central Valley, exactly between San Francisco and Sacramento, the state capital. It is a small university town of about 65,000 inhabitants with nearly 30,000 employed by the University of California, Davis campus (some must be from outside Davis!). Davis is known for its liberal politics, for having many bicycles and bike paths, and for the beautiful UC Davis campus. 

It belongs to "America's Best Biking Cities".

Davis has dry, hot summers and cool, rainy, winters like those of a Mediterranean climate.
