This comment is truly mindblowing to me!

I do welcome you sharing your perspective, but I also feel like we must be of different species, because I so profoundly cannot relate at all. Fascinating!

I want to clarify that I like spending time outside - while in California I spend at least an hour outdoors on most days. Having to be indoors all summer would be a real sacrifice.

Yea I can understand having a pretty set comfort range, climatewise. If that were my situation, I would be dead set on living in a walkable place in California. I walk and bike from -25 C to 35 C (~0–90 F) and will just put on raingear if needed, that's freedom for me.
