A move from London to Norwich?

DH and I have been married 10 years, have lived in London all that time, own a house here and looking to move to a place with a slightly slower pace of life. We have no children and don’t plan on having any. We don’t drive and so the public transport in London is important for staying connected. We therefore are considering moving within walking distance to the centre of a small city where all amenities would be nearby.

DH is from Norwich originally, has friends and family there and we really like it when we visit. What’s it like to live there? Any pros and cons on things like community, transport, and local culture?

Would really appreciate any insights—thanks!

My daughter and son went to uni there , loved it but were desperate to go to bigger cities due to lack of work prospects and being so far from the wide range of things to do in London . However I can understand people my age ( 50s) moving there as homes are cheaper but I would stlll really need to think about it as it's v different around Norwich if you like to be out and about and social .
I'm sure others will have other views which would ll also be a view point to help
