Mwanza is not a bad place.....may compare with Nakuru or Eldoret.

Stayed at some hotel called Green leaf and was nice.

Shoot specific questions.

I would agree with @ stock.enigma that it is more like kisumu with lake victoria incising the town to two.
Food is cheap.
Long-term rental accommodation I don't know about Mwanza, but I know Tanzanians like making longer contracts for rentals, like asking for six months or 3 months rent upfront (not deposit).

Public transport is cheap. 400tzs (20-25ksh) is a standard price for considerable distances.

Rentals are relatively cheap and wide choice. I like Kirumba area.
Lots of fish in Mwanza,both types, real fish and Swenani fish.

Hot place, developing kiasi.
I liked creativity of the residents there who had built houses into, around and onto of the huge rocks there!
Life is cheap hukoz.
