The idiot who made this map probably thinks Mexico is in Central America simply because it's a Spanish speaking country.

It doesn't say Norte Americano, now does it?

The uninhabitable zone should include all D and E climates as well as the colder B climates. All A and C and the warmer B climates are perfectly habitable

Vancouver is 8B. I am glad you think it's habitable here

That's so likely it's actually sad.

Don't think I'd want to live in NW Ontario, Canada. Way too cold.

Also California being death? Lol. That state is more than just Death Valley, you know. Seems like this map was made by Cambium or some other hardcore cold lover.

I've actually seen this map circulating around FB for a good while, it was likely some idiot who relies on climate stereotypes who made this map.

Not my first choice, but would still choose Vancouver or Seattle in a heartbeat over any place east of the rockies north of Interstate 10

Plus, I mainly chose 8B as the limit west of the Rockies due to Nogales and Kingman, AZ, which have 65/30 and 58/35 norms in January respectively, and both places have Washingtonia Filifera

Well, at least the Auto industry only considers the US and Canada to be "North America", Mexico is part of the Latin America auto market, cars made for Canada or the US are interchangeable, but cars made for Mexico can't be legally registered here or in Canada
