I don't know the detail of all the climates listed in the poll, and right now I don't have time for searching the all of them. So I prefer to don't vote in the poll. Who knows, maybe among the climates I don't know there is the perfect one for me!

Anyway, in general I would not go too far from my own climate. I like warm and sunny summers, not extremely hot but with a certain constancy of good weather. About winter, I'm not a cold lover but I like to see some snow too, and so I think that climates like mine can be a good compromise.

Turin / Torino is pretty good, I agree.

Check out Vernon, not too bad either.

I wonder who chose Bridgeport?

Cambium lives there but I don't think he likes the climate.

Doesn't Cambium like very cold and snowy winters?

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.

Yeah. Bridgeport doesn't fit that description.

I'd go for either mild and coastal, with lots of fog (didn't really see that represented in any of the choices--perhaps western France), or something like Lexington... hot summers, mild winters, just cool enough for the leaves to change a bit in the late Fall, with a nice Spring...

According to wiki they average 3c/-5c in January, with an annual snowfall of 70cm. That is cold and snowy.
