Pros

Beautiful town for study and living, good place to study. The living cost is relatively low. Bus brings you over the whole town conveniently. Nice and active people you will meet here. Compensation is normal, not better not worse though. Football events makes the town crowed but it is good experience.

Cons

It is very cold at winter time. A little bit not that convenient for shopping. The research press is a little bit high. The entertainment activity is relatively not that convenient, for example, you need to drive to another close city for shopping or watching movie.
