I prefer larger metros with minimal cold weather. LA is my first choice followed by Miami, Dallas, and then Phoenix. Denver and Boise are too cold

Shouldn't Albuquerque and Tucson be on the list?

Not really. It depends on the winter, some winters can have a month of cloudy/gloomy PNW type of skies, but usually it's sunny if the weather isn't storming. Of course, Denver and its brown cloud, and Salt Lake and even Boise are no strangers to the occasional winter inversions.

Yep, and SACRAMENTO, the third sunniest major metro in the Nation. In July, Sacramento is the sunniest place on the Planet.

Sacramento, Phx, and Vegas are much more sunnier than San Diego and LA....and a lot more sunny than all the rest on the list.

San Francisco shouldn't even be on the list. The foggiest, coolest/coldest summer you'll ever experience is in San Francisco.

How is it that people still don't know these basic facts about California.

El Paso is sunny all year round...sunnier than almost anywhere in winter.

What you call warm most would call hot. It does not necessarily get hotter than Phoenix or Atlanta but southern Florida gets hot sooner and cools down later in the year than the other hot places, except for Texas.

Phoenix/Sacramento make Boise look like Portland/Seattle. Putting Boise here makes no sense. Who cares if every once in a while boise isn't too bad(whatever that means). It doesn't belong on this list.

Lol, calm down.

You might want to address your concern about this city being on the list with the OP.
