Crime is low - until you end up in a bad district with a high degree of foreigners at the bottom end of the income scale.
Some neighborhoods in Germany feel like <insert some non-EU country to which you wouldn't go to for a vacation> exported all it's criminals to Germany, with clans governing various parts of the neighborhood etc.

Don't forget bread. Whenever I travel to the US I'm appalled by what is considered good bread there. Not throwing shade here, it's just what it is. On the flipside, buying Avocados here in Germany is akin to a crime against humanity.

One of my pet peeves is how Germans have amazing bread, but then put the blandest possible stuff (like very tasteless Cheese, and one leaf of salad) on top of it, while Italians have great stuff to put on bread but the bread itself is so boring.

Then travel to Switzerland and IMHO German bread is just average anymore.

it's really basically the same? Cheese is better in Switzerland though.

You can get good bread in the US at a bakery. Supermarkets are iffy depending on the region.

You can get fantasic bread in the US, but just like everything else food-related, you're not going to find it at Walmart or a typical grocery store.

Germany has some great burger restaurants. Cafes are pretty good too.
In terms of mentality, Bavarians are very different from Rhinelanders who are very different from East Germans. Berlin is a bubble in and of itself and can't really be compared to the rest. In general, Germans tend to take comfort in clear rules and structure, and are used to a certain kind of cutting through bullshit, both of which may be a good or a bad thing. I'll also add that, to my knowledge, no other country has reflected its own role in history as deeply and critically as Germany has, which to me comes as a bonus even when there is a tendency to overcorrect.
Food is IMHO not great (except Käsespatzle), but beer is some of the best in the world.
