At least it helped me figure out the good and bad of Raleigh. I see no problem with it.

Default Summer heat

Just how much heat and humidity are we talking about? About when does the miserable heat start and when does it end?

Anywhere from July 4-Labor Day is fair game for the "Southeastern heat/humidity" which can mean many days above 90 in a row with very high humidity. Mid-July to mid-August is probably the worst. You can look up Raleigh on a climate website to find specifics (exact humidity, etc).

But there's plenty of urban environments with trees. Urban doesn't automatically mean nature wasteland. Unless of course we're talking about a Stephen King novel.

It feels like you're in a sauna with no relief in sight. It lasts from about April to October with the worst of it being July to September.

While Raleigh-Durham is not the most breathtakingly beautiful city in the world, I think it's one of the most pleasant and comfortable to live in.

+1 for the city of Raleigh-Durham

I'm only asking, it's not as hot & humid as SC, GA, AL, FL though is it? I live near Chicago now and I lived in central FL for 3 years - I was hoping the Triangle summers would be somewhere in between the two...gotta get away from Chicago winters, brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
