The objective numbers speak for themselves. Compared to places and cities that are actually considered "mild" you cannot claim that Atlanta's summer temps are mild by any objective measure.
Maybe compared to other "hot" cities it is considered mild. But calling it Mild in the grand scheme of things is a huge stretch.
No. It matches the thread title, so in this context it is most definitely mild. This isn't about Seattle, it's about the Sunbelt.
At half a million, Albuquerque is not a major city, and even the entire metro area is less than a million. Classify it as one big brown dry strip mall with major crime and large muddy river that is running dry.

City proper, it's still larger than Raleigh. Far more major cities than you'd think have 500k or less without their suburbs.
Also, Albuquerque is major by southwest standards and it is thoroughly sunbelt. Other than it, there's what, Phoenix and Vegas? Maybe El Paso?
ABQ is major enough in my opinion.
This isn't factoring what he mentioned: Ocean breeze.
It's all relative to WHERE in Miami one lives.
Same as where I currently live. It can be extremely hot and humid in Tampa, but where I am in Pinellas County, MUCH closer to the Gulf, I get a wonderful ocean breeze, and have no issues going for afternoon jogs or bike rides during the summer.

Breezes are nice but don't reflect the stats I mentioned. There is no breeze index. Temperature, heat and humidity are what matter here.
Miami has the best summer weather even including CA. I spent years in Southern California, and June into early July was gloomy, overcast, and never above about 65. That isn't even summer weather at all.
St George hasn't been a *well kept* secret in years. Hardly secret any more. Which is, well, sad.
