When I was in High School, in a little Hick town in an inland valley (soon to be part of the greater San Francisco Bay Area Suburban Sprawl - SFBASS) called Livermore, most of my cool friends (all six of 'em, more or less) were a year or two older, and about half of them ended up going to Sonoma State University in Cotati. I didn't visit there much, but it was discribed as a cool little college town. There was also a "planned development" to the North (soon to metastasize) into a bloated generic-looking suburb called Rohnert Park (which unfortunately spread to infect the town of Cotati itself).
