FWIW, I live in Davis and it's a very nice place to live. Commuting,
depending on where you're working, can be as short as 20 min, as long
as an hour. It's quite a bit pricier than Sacramento, but there is a
tremendous boom in building right now, so houses are plentiful (though
I know a lot of folks who commute FROM Sacramento because it's less
expensive).
There is an active theatre community here. This is a politically correct
city (sometimes ridiculously so), but the city council is usually good
for a few chuckles.
