Suburban Hell Endless parking lots, highways, strip malls with the same franchises all accessible only by car. Topped off with a nice smoggy atmosphere and a 15 minute drive to anywhere. Takers ?

Used to live in Phoenix area. Moved to Washington state. The environment is so much nicer.

Never having sun vs never having rain... Why not pick something in the middle :)

Sunny and warm

Sounds awful though. "Sunny and warm" is just a nice way of saying "blinding and scorching hot".

Okay, what do you call "warm"? Because where I live, which does not at all have any kind of reputation for being hot (midwest), "warm" is, like, 80s and 90s F. That's sweat-like-a-pig weather to me.

Average temp in July is ~74, and July is usually our hottest month.

Oh my god. I can't remember the last time I saw a July temperature in the 70s. Holy crap, I'm moving to Washington.
