NYC. Boulder's winters are too cold.

Boulder for me. I love the temperate variability, especially in winter.

I realized I forgot my vote. New York City for the warm humid summers and mild winters with little snow.

Tough one. New York's highs are lower, but Boulder still gets way more snow, plus is less humid with cool summer nights. I pick Boulder.

These subtropical battles are tricky. I would go for NYC, for the higher rainfall.

NYC for the 4 awesome seasons , varied climate and beautiful coulours in autumn and spring !

And for the beautiful short and heavy rainfall with beautiful sunshine hours.

Since when is Boulder subtropical?

Boulder is Cfa/Cfb I think and not BSk according to Koppen. Denver is also borderline subtropical.

I like these high altitude climates. Boulder it is! I like the fact that summers days are very warm but still get relieve from the heat at night, unlike the sauna of NYC. Winter is good, too.
