i also want to know if other college towns have the same atmosphere (such as Davis, for example…) or is Berkeley the only place like this…



Well, nothing in the world is EXACTLY like the town of Berkeley. The town is quite unique.

Probably the closest analogue would be Cambridge, Mass - which is a unique city in its own right. Ann Arbor, Durham/Chapel Hill, and Santa Cruz are also interesting college towns. Then of course you have the cool big cities which just happen to have major universities located in/near them - the prototypical one being Boston, but also New York, Austin, Seattle, Chicago, Atlanta, Columbus, Washington DC, Los Angeles, San Diego, and so forth.
