Is there such a state/city- that gets fairly long chilly winters?- atleast chilly enough to wear sweaters- as I love them!! But not very warm summers? and like no humidity in the summers? I'll take 60 degree weather over 6 month summers that are 85-115 degrees- like here in AZ UGH!!! I'm already dreading the 85 degrees and up weather here- it totally sucks and I hate it.

To me, "not very warm summers" means under 85 F, usually.
Is that what you meant?
That is exactly like Toronto.
I love hot days and very-warm summer nights,
but we usually get warmish-days and coolish-nights.
Most of the Great Lakes and New England should be like Toronto,
and even coastal PNW should be quite-cool.
Good luck on the move!
I hope to move too; I despise the idea of seeing any days below 56 F.

Yes, no hotter than 85 for the high in the summer!
I can't move now but thanks.

What happens here is 85 F is just rare usually.
One of our hottest summers ever had 40-50 days of 85+ F, maxing with a day or two at 97-98 F.
We've had hotter single days, but usually with less days above 85 F.
Last year we had maybe 5 days at 85+ F.
(Cooler than normal, our average would have been about 15 days at 85+ F) If you don't mind the fact that it "can happen, but usually doesn't last"
then the Great Lakes or New England would do just fine.
Summers have typically changeable temperature patterns.
If you have a serious beef about 86 F then I would look for a coastal location.
Cold winters, but if you dress in layers, you'll shed layers as the day goes on. Some days of real cold that all the layers stay on.
Summers that get up into the 80's, occasional 90's but with humidity below 50%, 90 doesn't feel hot. Even in the summers, evenings will drop down in the 60's a lot of night. We even have nice fires after a picnic because it's cool enough in the evening that a fire in the center of the tent ring feels pretty good while we're all setting around.
In August of last year, I went camping, not far from my cabin. We had snow and it was the 21st of August. Had a nice fire going that felt pretty good. But yet, we went 4 wheeling during the day and it was low 80's.
Spring rains help the local ranchers and keeps everything green until about mid July and then irrigation water keeps them going.
It's February and today I went out and fed the horses and all I wore was a hoodie with a jean jacket over it. Creek right here by the cabin is frozen about 80% across. Leaves just enough space to drop a hook, which is on tomorrow's agenda.
Probably the place with the least temperature variation year round in the continental US is the Northern California coast and the Southern Oregon coast. Eureka, CA has an average high of 54F in January and an average high of only 63F in August, with record lows around 20F and record highs around 90F.

Amazing !
Darn near unbelieveable--------------so I checked my " weather bible" which gives averages for the last 70 years, or so.
Eureka--------average number of annual days with temps above 90....0
average number of annual days with temps below 32..........................4
