It depends really. If I lived somewhere where natural disasters were a common occurrence then I probably would. Luckily I live in the UK which, while not great in other ways, has a temperate climate. That said, if the south gets too much warmer then I am tempted to move to Scotland. I don't cope well in temperatures above 19 Celsius. It would be one of several reasons though, not the overriding factor.
Damn 19C! My apartment is 24 right now and it feels cozy. When I bake it gets to 27. Without heat in the winter it hovers around 16 inside.
I'd consider going somewhere with more extreme day/night cycles like the Northwest territories, but within Canada I'm basically happy where I am. I like the super long days in the summer and I'm also ok living in the dark most of the winter as long as I can stay active.
Life is a rich tapestry and everyone is different but that’s 66 degrees F and that’s legit pretty cold to me from California. No one’s right or wrong here, that’s just so interesting to me.
Edit: typing is hard, apparently
UK's pretty bloody humid though, and we don't really have air con.
That’s super fair, we were at a theme park and it was 23c and 90% humidity yesterday and it was pretty gross.
We are consistently in the late 40s for months without reliable power and with humidity etc. 19 sounds like heaven. I considered Scotland but that accent man, I dont wanna hear that for the rest of my life (no offense to anyome intended).
