I'm looking for a place in the US that has the right weather for me. I'm looking for a city that has little to no snow, is mostly sunny, and the temperature rarely gets lower then 40 degrees and over 70 Fahrenheit. And please no California suggestions, I don't tolerate earthquakes. Thanks.
Only places that fufill that criteria are high-altitude tropics.
The mountains of Hawaii at 5000-7000 ft?
Unless you're okay with life "at sea." Live on a boat?
Few places in the world have such a small annual range,
and by limiting yourself to the USA and excluding California, it would be difficult.
I would have said central coast of California; anywhere with high marine influence.
Yes. If you would like a place with relatviely stable temps throughout the year, try florida. The mountains of Arizona have mild sum mers, rarely getting above 70. But winters are cold and usually about 55 until the snow comes. this past winter, n. az recieved some23 feet of snow.

When you find it everyone will move there and then you"ll be forced to leave due to overcrowding.
The kind of climate you're looking for is virtually limited to California. You might try coastal southern Oregon (Brookings, Port Orford, etc.), although you don't get much sun there.
To be frank, your options are very limited if you exclude CA. 70 F can hardly be considered uncomfortably hot. If you raised that threshold to 80 F or so you might open up some more options (although even that wouldn't really help much). Pretty much everywhere in the US outside of CA has too much seasonal variation to fit your criteria (or not enough sun).
Have you considered moving south of the border? There are plenty of highland locations in Mexico, Peru, Chile, etc. that fit the bill perfectly.
It will be very difficult getting the kind of weather you describe if you eliminate California.
There is about 20 or so miles of coastal Oregon just north of the California border around Brookings that fits most of your requirements. But even here the sunshine is in short supply due to the heavy marine overlay. Move a few miles inland, though, and you lose the fog and low clouds....But...then you are at a much higher risk of 90+ degree weather in the summer.
If you can see your way clear about living somewhere other than the U.S. then New Zealand's North Island around Hastings/Napier or Gisbourne might fit the bill. They have about the sunniest climate on the North Island and temperatures below 40 and above about 75 to 80 are rare.

Count me out!
I'd find no temps above 70 F depressing. I even prefer lows above 70 F some mornings.
