I just went on a campus visit last week - I liked Bloomington a lot more than I thought I would. It's a cute, fun, and overall quiet town. If you need a big city to be happy, you probably won't like it. It seems that except for certain bars and restaurants, everything is closed by 9 or 10 on a weeknight. Overall, I found the people to be open-minded, but also clean-cut. For example, there is a definite drinking culture, but at the same time they are very strict about underage drinking - I picked up a six pack and not only was my license closely examined, but I needed to show a credit card with the same name on it, and be able to answer a few questions about my age and ID. (This may be normal depending on where you're from - where I'm from it would definitely be considered overboard.) I, personally, am cool with it, cause it's irrelevant to me, and I think underage drinking only adds more headaches to a town. I was surprised how many students I saw studying, everywhere. It's made my decision about where to go to grad school that much more difficult - it was a back-up option that rose significantly in my opinion after visiting. If you have any specific questions (that a visitor can answer) let me know.
