City Profile Davis, CA
Davis, in the north of California, is a town with approximately 64,000 inhabitants and lies only 120 kilometers away from San Francisco, and 211 kilometers from Lake Tahoe. There are great opportunities for ski driving and snowboarding. The symbol of the city is a wheel, because Davis is considered a bicycle city. Climatically, one can call the city Mediterranean, because the summers are hot and dry; the winters are relatively mild, and temperatures fall only on few days under the freezing point. Davis is strongly ecologically oriented; there is a bio market: Farmers Market, an ecological supermarket: Food Coop and one of the oldest ecological festivals of California: Whole Earth Day. Valuable attractions are for example the Wetlands, with their one-of-a-kind damp, or the Design museum.

This kind of accommodation is a good opportunity to socialize with American students or families beyond the exchange program. This is offered by many families or even student flat shares.

Fees:
About US$ 350 to US$ 400 for one room per month
The fees for apartments or small flats are higher and you can find out about them in current advertisements.
