<p>Hi I just got accepted as a transfer to UC Davis. I know its not a “party school”, but what kind of party scene is there? Is it boring? Or is it possible to party and find something fun to do if you want?</p>
<p>Also, what is the best place to live in Davis? I will not be living on campus and want to find a good apartment/area. Any recommendations??</p>
<p>Any information on Davis in general would be great as I’m trying to learn as much as possible about the area.
Thanks!</p>
<p>If you want to be close to shopping and restaurants, live in downtown Davis. West Davis is also known as “Best Davis” according to Davis Wiki, but there’s not a lot of shopping in West Davis. </p>
<p>For party scene, there’s Frat Row across the street from the Segundo area. I don’t know too much about the quality of their parties, though, since I’ve never been to a frat party. You can also make your own party if you want.</p>
<p>Frat row can have some good parties on occasion, but they’re usually pretty packed. My suggestion would be to find some upperclassmen who like to party. Apartment/house parties are definitely your best bet. Also, there are clubs you can join that throw some good parties (Ski or Snowboard and Band-uh come to mind.) You’re right, UC Davis isn’t a party school, so you’ll have to put in some effort to find parties, but they do exist (and they’re easier to find when you have friends living off campus.)</p>
<p>Or you could always rush. My friend’s frat seems to have a good amount of parties, a lot of which are for greeks only.</p>
