For me, it’s the Central Valley of Chile. I chose Talca because it has the most data, but there’s some towns slightly to the north that are even closer.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talca
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concord,_California

I chalk this up to their similar geography; both are west coast valley locations that have hills/mountains blocking the moderating effects of the ocean, and unlike other regions with Mediterranean climates, the oceans are chilly year-round. The biggest difference is sunshine, as I’m sure sunshine exceeds 3000hr/yr where I live.

There is a website that estimates the most similar climate to yours, but it didn’t show any locations in Chile for me, so take it with a grain of salt.

From my own searching around, I found that Duluth, Minnesota and Nayoro, Hokkaido, Japan are pretty good matches to my cimate here in Estonia. Those climates have slighly higher highs in jul-sept and lower lows in winter, but overall the temperatture ranges are similar. Percipitation patterns are also somewhat similar (less in jan-apr, more in june-oct), although Duluth has higher sunshine hours and Nayoro on the other hand is quite a bit rainier.

Temperature-wise, probably someplace in Virginia near the ocean.

Chongqing? Not an exact match, but pretty close in terms of temperature and annual precipitation. Though I'll admit it's a lot less sunny than DFW.

The closest match I could find for Detroit outside of North America is Rostov-on-Don, Russia. It's a little drier than Detroit, but not as dry as places in Ukraine that were a little closer match for the temperatures (i.e., Zaporizhzhia and Dnipro).

A mix of Pelotas, Brazil and Valencia, Spain.

The wetness of the former and the arid influence of the latter.

The Po Valley in Italy is the most similar region climate-wise to LI as well as the Black Sea coast in the warmest part of Russia. These regions both have hot summers, cold, wet winters, and overall similar temperatures and precipitation.
