There's too much dust and pollution and not enough green in the city. Though most people are nice, there's a sense of 'everyone having something to prove or say' which can grate on the nerves. Other than that, it's been my home for years and I'm at once saddened and excited as things change here. While the restaurants are plenty and varied, there's fewer natural outlets for relaxing or just enjoying the sun. (What sun? :-) The winters are also really annoying. In fact... it's not too different from Oklahoma... except for the quanity of people. I need to move to Shunyi. :-)
