I personally loved my time at Davis. The students at Davis are ridiculously smart, they just tend not to take themselves too seriously. There was overall a more laid back vibe to the campus. The Berkeley students were too competitive for my taste. People do complain that with Davis being a small town in the middle of nowhere, there isn’t anything to do. But its just a matter of finding the right people and the right thing to do. There is always something going on around campus but there are probably more things going on in and around Berkeley.
I will also mention out that there are some majors that are impacted so not everything is totally open. They will typically make you take pre-reqs and then let you declare the major if your grades in the pre-reqs and overall are high enough.

But it should honestly boil down to where you feel like you fit. If you are miserable throughout your college experience, it doesn’t matter if its at the best public university in the world or the worst. And going to the best public university in the world also doesn’t necessarily mean you will be successful after graduating, you’re going to have to work for it wherever you go.
