Does this place exist?
Just for fun ...
Is there a place in the continental USA that has warm winters (no snow, and no temps below, say 50 degrees) and fairly mild summers (low humidity, nothing above 80 degrees in general)? If so, I'd love to live there someday.
My guess is San Diego might fit the bill.

You answered your own question. However, the temperature in San Diego dips below 50 degrees quite often during the winter. Temperatures in San Diego can spike WELL above 80 degrees during Santa Ana events at any given time of year. The highest temperature San Diego has ever recorded is 112, and that was at the airport, which is right along the water.
There is really no place in the United States, continental or otherwise, that fits your specifications. However, coastal Southern California comes the closest.

If cap is 90 instead of 80, then some places of Hawaii are really close:

Especially Lihue:

In continental US, San Diego has the perfect average (50-80) although the extremes are well apart:

Santa Barbara, CA (winters can get to 30s at night but rare mostly 60-70s all year around) prob Hilo, Hawaii (70-80s all year round). Of course you gotta pay for it $.

I figured So. Cal. or Hawaii might be the answer. And yeah, the limits don't need to be quite so specific. I'd just be happy with a place that had mild winters and moderate temps/low humidity in the summer.
