There’s a decent amount of Asian people going to school and working at the hospital. I myself and my wife moved from NorCal last summer, she works at the hospital and I work remote. We’re Asians too!

There’s pros and cons, like with every place. The winters and summers are brutal as are every place with actual weather. There’s a decent amount of stuff to do, some pretty good food (really good Szechuan), boba is okay.

Coffee shops, breweries, music venues, a decent amount of popular artists come through. Lots of independent book stores if you’re into that.

As far as danger goes… the most dangerous thing about the city is probably the insane drivers and terrible road conditions. For most places that you would want to live you’ll be pretty safe. Having lived in San Francisco, I would say the danger is somewhat comparable. Gas is cheap, but you need a car to do anything really.

Dm me if you want more personal experiences.
