Beautiful place, family friendly, safe (except for the bikes, you can lose your wallet with money inside and find it on a bench - so it will be visible and will remain dry - but there is a ridiculous amount of bike stealing), but boring, SO boring.. except the summer. The summer is nice, you can have fun in one of the many lakes - at walking / biking distance of city center.

And the people are beautiful..

the police are nazis and shitheads. otherwise people-friendly town but the criminal world there is very unpredictable but otherwise good services and well educated people. mostly friendly too. many low income housing possibilities with a little drama attached to it. family friendly and beautiful especially in the summer. not much nightlife but very active for the bars/clubs it offers. welcome!
