Deyang and Tianshui, side by side.

What locals say
There isn’t enough Reddit or travel-guide material here to build a confident portrait of daily life in Deyang. The available source text does not describe housing, work, transit, food, or neighborhoods, so any detailed claim would be guesswork. Based on the thin evidence, the safest read is that Deyang is under-discussed rather than especially well-characterized online. Treat this as an empty sketch rather than a full city guide.
Tianshui feels like a smaller inland Chinese city shaped more by history, geography, and slow daily routines than by big-city ambition. People living here would likely notice an affordable, less crowded pace, with the Maijishan grottoes and other heritage sites giving the city a stronger cultural identity than many places its size. The tradeoff is that there is no Reddit evidence here of a big nightlife, trendy consumer scene, or intense job market; it reads more like a practical regional center than a destination for constant novelty. For someone who values scenery, local food, and a calmer rhythm, it would likely feel livable, but somewhat limited in urban excitement.

Food & nightlife
No reliable source material was provided about Deyang’s food scene, so I can’t say much beyond noting that the prompt contains no usable local dining discussion. There are no restaurant names, street-food references, or neighborhood food patterns to summarize.
There is no source material describing bars, clubs, late-night streets, karaoke, or after-hours habits in Deyang. I can’t infer a nightlife culture from the available posts.
There is no Reddit food discussion in the provided material, so any picture of the food scene has to stay broad. As a city in Gansu, Tianshui is likely to have a strong northwest Chinese street-food and noodle presence, with the kind of hearty, wheat-based, savory eating that suits inland provincial life. The travel summary does not mention restaurants or specialty markets, so the best-supported claim is simply that food is probably local, practical, and tied to regional flavors rather than high-end dining.
No Reddit posts or comments describe nightlife, so there is no evidence here of a distinctive club, bar, or late-night scene. Tianshui should be treated as a place where nightlife is probably modest and neighborhood-oriented rather than a major draw. If someone is moving there, they should expect a quieter evening culture than in China’s bigger coastal or provincial capital cities.
Weather vs. what locals say
—
No weather discussion appears in the provided material, so I can’t contrast climate statistics with local perception. There is nothing here about heat, humidity, rain, air quality, or seasonal comfort.
—
The travel summary does not provide climate details, so there is no direct basis for strong weather claims. In a place like Tianshui, people often care less about statistics and more about how the climate affects walking around, commuting, and seasonal comfort. The honest takeaway is that weather sentiment is unknown from the source material, though locals would likely describe it in practical terms rather than as a major selling point.
In short
Not enough data to form a verdict.
