I like the climate of San Francisco, and I suppose LA. The only downside of LA is that it literally never rains in LA (nor does it thunderstorm) and when it does rain it only lasts for a few seconds lol. I thought that the climate of LA was great when I used to be a tourist here, but once I started living here the monotonous weather of sunny and 70s/high 60s every. single. day. 24/7. just gets straight up boring eventually. Granted, many people love that type of weather...or there wouldn't be millions of people living here. Phoenix is also perfect 8 months of the year. At the end of the day all three cities lack humidity and humidity is something I despise haha .
To be fair, you moved here during the worst drought in over a millennia by consistent years of near record low rainfall.
I get everyone's like for a Mediterranean-type of climate. However, I have to admit that a city such as Albuquerque has some pretty decent weather overall as well.
I like Northern California climate the best, its colder than LA's climate. I like SF's cold winter. I do get why people like Miami's climate its horrible its too hot and humid most of the year.
Easily LA wins this. SF easily wins 2nd. I would vote Phoenix 3rd based on 8 months of very good weather before the heat takes over. Of the eastern USA, probably Atlanta is the best.

Yes but in relation to this thread, how indicative is that to feeling like you're amongst four seasons? My thing is LA has the "most pleasant" 12 month weather obviously, but where out of these cities do you get the most balance and equivalence to feeling like your receiving spring, summer, fall, and winter?

Mild winter my fanny. Denver gets some mild days in winter, but they also get some BITTER COLD as well, a mild winter to me is Las Vegas or El Paso, Denver is cold and snowy in the winter, and it is a long winter at that, they had a blizzard on May 1st this year, something not out of the ordinary!

Sorry, but you've apparently never experienced a real winter and probably throw on a North Face jacket if the temp drops below 70. If you think Denver's horrible visit Minneapolis in January.

Just because Minneapolis is an ice box doesn't mean that Denver has mild winters.
