Well, that's the beauty of these prospective student visits. You can sit down with other students in the department, sit down with faculty and talk about these kind of issues. Ask them what they feel they give up/gain. Ask how they negotiate their personal lives. A lot of times people (esp. the grad students if you can get them to the coffee shop) will be very candid about any down sides.
