Naples, Florida.

And I have no desire to do this. Too HOT. Different strokes for different folks.

I hate bitter cold weather and I hate sticky humid scorching weather. But if I had to choose between the two, give me the sticky scorching. I can always find some shade to sit in outside and there's always morning and evening when temperatures are more comfortable to be outside anyway. In bitter cold weather, there is no relief outside day or night.

It is also more dangerous driving on ice, less comfortable waiting for a bus in the cold, etc. The road conditions in cold places are generally worse, more potholes. Lighting on the street is also worse, no street buttons.

I don't think I would want to live where there is any snow in the summer, let alone enough to sled on.

Milwaukee City, I see that u don't like the cold. Its ok.

What ur not realizing is that if the weather is the same (warm) all year and sunny...it gets very boring and predictable. I wouldn't want it to be 80+ degrees here all year round...only in the summer.

Temperate weather is, in my opinion, the best. You experience all 4 seasons. I don't want it to be hot and sunny during Christmas becuz that is just pathetic. Winter is beautiful...its harsh...but for ppl who live in the North are used to it and like the different seasons they encounter throughout the year.

Another thing you don't realize is this...when weather is warm all year round, you basically have the same sets of clothing all year and to me, that sucks.

In the North, we buy new sets of clothing, when its winter...its time for winter fashion. Wearing leather or wool coats, nice sweaters and scarfs. When its summer, its time for shorts and tshirts. So the North has the advantage of buying different sets of clothing throughout the year and that becomes fun. I like wearing nice leather coats, wool coats and scarfs. Just my 2 cents and Im not the only one.

Yeah, Summer fashion gets old and cliche very quickly.

I would call that a disadvantage. I hate wearing extra layers of clothing . I hate shopping aswell.
