The City of Davis

The City of Davis is located in California's fertile central valley, 12 miles west of the capital city of Sacramento and 75 miles east of the San Francisco Bay Area. The wineries of Sonoma and the Napa Valley are about an hour's drive to the northwest; Lake Tahoe and the ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada are two hours to the east, and the seacoast towns of Mendocino and Santa Cruz are about 150 miles to the north or south, respectively. The City of Davis is known for its attention to the quality of college town life; the environment, controlled growth, and innovative housing. The weather is usually mild, with hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters. There are community pools, tennis courts, playing fields, parks and jogging paths throughout the city. And sometimes the city is referred to as "The Bicycle Capital of the U.S." because of the high rate of bicycle use and its long history of providing a "cyclist-friendly" environment. Overall, Davis is a most pleasant place to live, study and work.
