It's a just local plain town without any remark, populated around 85,000 in Northern Kanto area. It is very windy dry cold but hardly snows in Winter and hot and humid in Summer there. No particular critical crime rate as same as such typical country town of Japan there is because it has no enough numbers of younger generation. You'll soon be tired to live in Shibukawa easily unless you love such nature of life. Air is clean and water is tasty. Very quiet in night. Prices are reasonable too.

You want a down to earth spot in Japan? May I suggest Okinawa? It is so beautiful. Islands, ocean and a more relaxed/zen atmosphere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Cities_in_Okinawa_Prefecture
3 :
It is not a city but I like Sado island. There is a slow life, and it is also a cultural place.You can enjoy taiko or Japanese drums, and Noh. You can have good food there, the nature is awsome. Only one problem, the North Korea is near.
4 :
Will you do working? studying? If you will work or study there, it's hard to find job or school. You may be able to find job or school nearby city Takasaki or Maebashi. If you wouldn't need to work or study, there are various area. For example, Hokkaido: very cold, but there are many delicious foods. Niigata: deep snow, but well known for best japanese rice area. Okinawa: beautiful sea!

Suruga Bank has been around for more than 100 years. So it's very stable.
2 :
Suruga bank is not a kind of giant banks but well-known for its stable management and it succeeded to survive the financial turmoil which forced many banks exit from the market. Some of my friends have Suruga debit card and they have been away from any problems. In Japan the deposit insurance covers your money up to 1,000,000 yen.
