I'm much closer to the equator than you, and I don't have a problem
I'm actually actively looking at moving to the Upper Midwest for a good employment opportunity, as I prefer it over many areas I've lived. You might not have a problem with the sun, but many people like more clouds and less harsh sunlight. You also have to remember it is a severe shock when you live in the Ohio Valley because you get used to having more than half the year featuring 2/3 or 3/4 cloudy days, and then you get blasted out with excessive amounts of sun during the hotter months.

Only people who aren’t able to get a tan, like you.
