Hangzhou is really nice to visit…I have friends living there that think it's a little boring, but different strokes and all that. Overall I'd say go for it! You aren't even that far from Shanghai, it's possible to live in Shanghai and commute to Hangzhou by subway/train in like < 1 hour, so if you find you don't like living in HZ, you could move to SH (if you don't mind the commute).

Learning chinese in 2026 couldn't hurt. I've never been to that province, but I can see gor 3-9USD, you can take a 30-90 minute train to/from Shanghai.

Its useful for international business and apparently science given that everything is made in China.

But also when rent is 1500, that's 100 hours per month just to not be homeless. A chinese teenager working at a fast food place makes a measily 3USD/hr, but his rent is 150, so he spends half as much time to not be homeless. Same applies to food and transport.
