Bridgeport is further east than Atlanta. Though Atlanta has a much higher growing zone.
What do you mean by "much higher" lol? Atlanta is zone 8a/8b (14F), Bridgeport avg low last thirty years is 5F which makes it 7a/7b. Cape May, NJ is 10F which is 7b/8a. Not like Atlanta is 10a or something. That would be "much higher". And Raleigh is 12F, slightly higher than Cape May.

He's always exaggerating the difference between the Upper South and Coastal NE. The way he goes on about the difference between Raleigh and areas like DC/Baltimore, you would think it was like a 50 F difference.
I'm surprised I was included, I tend to get forgotten.
Nah you get forgotten in those threads that roasts other members, mostly because you're not a nut case lol. But I don't think people forget you as a poster though.
This is quite difficult. I generally like the Mediterranean climates overall, but dry summers are something I ultimately won't accept.
I will go for other easy living climates -that is climates where heating isn't a big issue,and neither is cooling. They need to get a reasonable amount of rain, decent sunshine and not get too hot or cold. Also need to be climates that allow a wide range of fruit production of both subtropical and cooler climate fruit, as well as great summer gardening.
I would choose Motueka, Sydney, Melbourne, Rimini, Portland and Wellington and with Buenos Aires and Freiburg as borderline.
Not sure what my first choice would be -maybe Motueka, as it's such a great climate. Sydney maybe, although I don't mind a bit of frost either, which Sydney, does poorly with.
After some deliberation. I'm finally going to go with Motueka.
If there was no voting for your own location, I would have gone with Sydney.

I voted for Sydney, but I wanted to vote for Newcastle, AU. I swore there was a member from there, but maybe they have moved on.
What happened to our Buxton member? He was quite a prolific poster but dropped out totally.
