Aside from the Middle East and Africa...what are some of the places in the world with the lowest relative humidity year around? Is there any place like Nevada or Arizona? Anything even come close?
I am asking because I am sick with mold toxicity and need to live somewhere with an average humidity level of below 50%. Can't get a Visa to the US for longer than 90 days.
Besides NV, AZ and NM? CO, too.
Kazakhstan? Uzbekistan? Afghanistan? Turkey? Erevan, Armenia? Georgia (Tbilisi, etc.) Great wine-making tradition in Georgia!
Where else... ... Urumqi, Xinjiang (Chinese Turkestan)? Albania? Maybe Macedonia? Montenegro? I didn't find the Alpine region in Germany to be humid. Spain, Portugal?
Rule of thumb: The lower the temperature went overnight the night before, the lower the humidity will be as the daytime temperature rises.
Ignore humidity as a percentage. Use Dew Point. If the dewpoint is below 70F or 21C, you will be fairly comfy at any time of the day, all day. If it is above 75F or 24C, you will feel the misery of humidity at 8 am, 3pm, or 8pm. The dewpoint remains fairly constant around the clock, seldom changing by more than a couple of degrees in a day. If the temperature drops below 70 overnight, it will drag the dewpoint down with it, and you'll have a comfortable day. Dewpoint can never be above temperature.
Here in Cebu, the temp is 89, feels like 106, humidity is 89%, and all I need to know is that the dewpoint is 79.
It is hard to determine the dewpoint, the TV weatherman will never tell you what it is. They keep that a secret -- if you knew that, you would not need a weatherman.
The northern end of Chile. Very dry, no measurable rainfall in a few locations there.
Conditions to immigrate and to get a permanent residence are not difficult,
Northern Chile is just as humid as anywhere else at that latitude -- it just never gets cold enough to precipitate the moisture out of the sea air. The Arabian side of the Persian Gulf has the highest moisture content of any air in the world, but it rarely rains.

Huh?
Lack of rain in northern Chile has nothing to do with this, but it’s caused by the influence of the subtropical high, as it happens in every western coast at those latitudes.
The coastal areas of northern Chile have relatively high humidity, yet it's usually not as high as in tropical areas, and they are pretty cool for such latitude, so the dew points are clearly lower. However, humidity quickly plummets inland, and more often than not, dew points are well below sub-freezing and there you do have some clear candidates.
The first thing I've noticed in Tbilisi was the HUMIDITY that I was not accustomed to (Baku in Azerbaijan was even worse.)
I was not familiar with such thing as "humidity" when I lived back in Moscow (I didn't feel it pretty much throughout the rest of the former SU when traveled, apart from Caucasus region,) and that was the first thing I've noticed when in the US.
The air is VERY different here in this respect comparably to European continent, and yes, this includes Wisconsin and Minnesota, not to mention the East Coast.
Obviously you need to live in rather liveable cities as well. So why I'm not sure why people in here are suggesting Central Asia and the Atacama desert? -_-
Try the Australian cities of Perth, Albany, Melbourne and Adelaide. Very liveable and hardly humid. Melbourne may have annoying temperature fluctuations and changeable weather, and that's pretty unbearable for many. So we can maybe exclude that city (unless if you can handle such extremities). Furthermore, the South Coast of NSW is just mildly humid, but the temps are pretty mild in the summer, so it won't feel that muggy.
