I see this an older thread, so I apologize if this has already been mentioned. (Perhaps by myself!). Mild winters and no humidity would be Seattle, WA, and Portland, OR. Perhaps all of the west coast, to be honest. While all these areas can get hot, the humidity usually drops accordingly. Yes, there is that stray day when it feels humid, but it never lasts, and never comes close to anything east of the Rockies.

No. Winters are far from mild in MN, IA, northern MO, ND, SD, MT, NE. Plus, to escape the summer humidity, you need to go west of the 100th meridian (approx. half way across the Dakotas, NE and KS)

Albuquerque has a Goldilocks four season climate. Winters in the Albuquerque area tend to be mild but can get into the 20s commonly at night. Desert nights are cool -- but 50 degree days are common with warm sun most days. Snow might last a few hours on the ground unless you are in the mountains. Humidity will commonly be 20% or even single digits in the summer. It rarely tops 100 degrees and the low humidity makes it tolerable. The sun is hot, partly because of the elevation. Most houses have evaporative swamp coolers, not AC. Albuquerque is over a mile high. Santa Fe is over 7,000 ft. with a cooler mountain climate. Las Cruces is a bit lower and warmer.

Idk anyone mentioned Northern Nevada for low humidity. The winters are mild to me, but we do have snow. If you move east, away from the Sierra Mountains, snow is negligible. This would be Dayton-Silver Springs area outside of Carson City or Fernley and maybe the Spanish Springs area outside of Reno...
Then there is Southern Nevada which has not much winter at all, but HOT summers...

Flagstaff is a good recommendation, and it does snow, but it’s not brutal. It’s gorgeous there. Pretty much anywhere like Flagg, Pine, Strawberry, or Payson.

My question is are there places that stay around 90• with lower humidity, but have mild winters AND great abundance of land? I want to move somewhere like Montana, but I can’t deal with 5 months of snow.

Montana summers are really short, the winters are long and if you look at a historical temp page, they have long spans of negative temps at night! heck no!
