The quality of life in the urban districts of Shenzhen is very high. There are a lot of parks, public transportation is fast and efficient, and more recently, rental bike companies such as Ofo and Mobike have covered the streets with incredibly cheap (1 yuan per half hour, or around US$0.16) bicycles that can get you across the very few areas in which public transport is not as convenient.
The city has a lot of public parks and squares where you can go at more or less any time of day and see some kind of activities going on.
