I should also mention, China is still a developing nation, so Shanghai is not as nice as other major cities around the world in rich countries - obviously. But for Chinese standards it's very expensive and very nice.
I'm from Minnesota, and comparing it to major metropolitan areas I've been to (DC, Minneapolis, Chicago, Memphis, Orlando, Winnipeg, Milwaukee, etc) it's easier to fall into some bad places in Shanghai, but if you stick to main roads and tourist places, like I said before, everything is actually nicer than in the cities I've been to. The Pearl Tower is amazing, and places like Pizza Hut and Haagan Daz are high quality restaurants ($10 for a double scoop of ice cream).
I'm studying here, so I live in the suburb - I'm not a tourist.
