Speaking of private schools, I have a friend who went to an "elite" private boarding school. He was East-Asian [though American born]. Most of the others he went to school with had family connections, and some went to places like Princeton even though their grades were rather poor. He was a bit annoyed at the culture of a lot of the people of his private school for obvious reason. Reminds me of NorthStarDelight of Asians in university.

Met a few people at my university who went to fancy NYC private schools. More I think went to places like Stuy than those private schools.

It cools down MUCH quicker where i'm from though, it's not typical for it to be 18c highs on a daily basis in October back home. It is really sunny here though, it's been sunny for weeks now, it has only rained 4 days that I have been here.

Well aren't you average highs in midsummer 18-19°C? Anyway, it's nowhere close to winter, plenty of time for a lot of cool down. Your also getting above average weather:

I can't understand why you'd want it to cool down past 18°C before winter, but to each his own.

18°C is considerably warmer than ideal. It's not a good fall temperature. I'd say mid-50s and lower are preferable for fall... well, for this part of fall, at least. In November, I'd like most days to remain below 50 F.

You are staying in the driest part of the UK, though. Hope you did your climate research beforehand.

I really think Syracuse, NY would have the best climate for you - some heat and sun in summer, but not too much, lots of changeable variable weather in the spring and fall, and a proper winter with lying snow most of the winter. If you ever move (or just stay a year) to the US - don't move to the South or the West - you'd get so bored of the weather. NE or the Midwest would be much better for you climate-wise.

The areas of upstate New York that get a lot of lake-effect snow seem like a great place for possible relocation. Not the *most* ideal climate, but a good blend of climate desirability & proximity to home.

What part of the US would you move to if money and/or job wasn't a concern?
