    For me, "Faroe Islands" takes the cake. Seattle is too harshly wet in winter and New Zealand is too warm and has lots of earthquakes.

    In America, San Diego is considered GOAT. Overall a great smaller city.

    Clean neighborhoods. Beach, suburbia and big city dreams. International flavor especially Mexican roots. Marines and Navy for conservative angle. Native American inland. Overall respect. No one lays claim to this land.

    The only place I would give up for San Diego is my hometown. Most my good buddies in SD are born and raised.

    Oh ya, 72 degrees all year

    In terms of cities, I love my city's weather. Patagonic city near the ocean. We get a good mixture of all the weathers without ever getting too extreme on either side. Also, it is nice and dry. None of this humidity bull .

    Los Angeles is no San Diego, but pretty damn close. Pretty much solid 70 degrees every day.

    San Diego would be great but I think I'd miss having a brisk fall and coldish winter.

    Hot weather (80+ and humid or 90+ and dry) is good for two things and two things only: the pool, and babes in bikinis. other than that, the heat can kiss my ass.

    Depends where you are in LA tbh. if you're talking about LAX and similar areas then yes, but LA is full of microclimates. In the San Fernando valley for example you basically feel like you're in San Antonio but with a chance of earthquakes.

    If you live in a city near the beach, you learn to like the heat. Drinking cold ones while watching some asses on bikinis. Good , tbh.

    I've lived in a Mediterranean climate. It's pretty great.
    I haven't really experienced Tropical. It might be better.

    And sand volleyball. Good . All of that stuff is fun 2-3 months a year. But any more just makes for miserable days going to work or wherever, solo walks outside are just impossible, and then you have sweltering muggy mornings and high A/C (electric) bills.

    4 seasons FTW. A summer in coastal Cali would be nice, but I wouldn't like to live there full time even if there were no state income taxes, hipsters or quakes.

    Don't you live in CA right now?

    San Antonio tows the line between hot variant on mediterranean (July-Sep is very hot and quite dry and the winters are quite mild and wet) and tropical (high humidity outside of the hot summer months).

    The thing about a Tropical place like Florida is that you'll get pretty fed up with monsoon summer season, high electric bills and no relief from the heat/mugginess at night (80º overnight lows with 94% humidity... count me out). Basically in FL you get 3 summers and a very wet and humid season when most of the country is having summer. At least in coastal CA it cools down at night. Overnight lows are reasonable unlike in TX/FL/most of Dixieland. In Coastal CA, overnight lows even on the warmest nights still drop into the upper 60s with at most 65-70% humidity.

    It's true. It's a transitional climate between Bsh (hot semi-arid) and Csa (humid subtropical) according to Koppen climo maps. Source... NOAA/Wikipedia.

    Unless your "lol" was a reference to fat people.

    Anywhere I can wear a jacket all the time.

    San Antonio. Closing in on 30 years here and I'm tired of the 100 degree 100% humidity bs. It legitimately snowed once 3 years ago and we haven't had a real winter since.

    I was more comfortable in Vegas in July.

    I agree. SA is bad. Dallas is less bad but still bad. Houston is worse than either. The humidity is super oppressive the farther east you go in the South. Houston/NOLA have quite similar climates to places like Mumbai and Chennai in India.

    Dry heat is better, but you gotta pack extra Aveeno if you have a psoriasis prone face like me.

    We've been getting early winters in Texas, especially North Texas a lot lately. The weather gets really cold in mid October but it's oddly warmer in October and November than February and March. odd.

    Maybe if you're in the mountains? But there's no real cities in the mountains there. The populated parts of Cuba are just oppressively hot and humid, and like you said, the sun beats down on you like crazy when it's not raining (and it rains a lot).

    My experience in Cuba is fairly limited tbh

    Most of the time I was in a resort so I spent a lot of time in the ocean (lol people who fly to the Carribbeans to swim in a pool) or sipping cold tails (lol people who fly to the Carribbeans to drink beer)

    I spent a day in Havana and also visited a sugar cane plantation; it was hot but no too humid on those days (I guess it was exceptional)

    I went to Cuba twice (for a total of 2 weeks) it rained only once, but it was during February-March

    Politically, yep. Are they still diehard communist or just moderate left wing these days? Who knows.

    yeah Jan-March is their relatively dry season, since it's well outside of hurricane season and most of the winter cold-front troughs are well displaced to the north, with no tropical waves from the west, no TUTT (a sort of monsoonal trough that digs down starting in May and another one in October-November), etc.
