"More than a little and less than too much" is about as precise as I can go with this type of question.

These number are AVERAGE and are based on at least 30 years measurment.

I hate the sun. I love cloudy days. It doesn't help that I live in the hottest and probably sunniest part of my state.

I don't want to feel cooked so I will take fewer sunny days

I just prefer even distribution of sunny days - ahem Jan-Feb

One.

For me 40-60% of the days per year to have sunshine. (151-200 days)And I would want it evenly distributed throughout the year, except for many more of the cloudy/rainy days to come Late fall-early spring than late spring-early fall.

I love sunshine and I love clouds/rain. I find it strange if someone doesnt ever like clouds/rain and if somebody doesnt ever like sunshine.

I hate when it's too much sunshine, especially in summer.

[Max96]

I don't dislike sunshine itself, however, especially in winter.

90 days or 3 months of no to little sunshine in the Winter is ideal for me. Makes it more seasonal.

(Note that there's no city on Earth that has more than 360 sunshine days a year, and the poll number is what you prefer)

And I also prefer that the temperature never gets below 80 deg F.
