You are once sick bastard to suggest that.

*shudder*

Moderate temps?

I don't think that when the regular average temp for the winter months being at -5 for a HIGH TEMP for a day is a MODERATE temp.

Sheese.

yes, my compliant is a vaild one I lived there for 4 years. hated it. Every second of it

Now for a serious suggestion....

Toole, Utah it's small not far from Salt Lake City, and near Hill AFB.

summers are in the mid 90's winters are rarely get blow 10 degrees.

I will have to agree. Most beautiful place in Canada.. and I'm from Toronto. Mountains, Ocean, Beach, Trees. It didn't rain a SINGLE day this summer. 90-something STRAIGHT days of SUN!

Of course, there were fire bans... but still, it was great weather.
 
Atlanta is pretty close to where you are and is NOT like the rest of Georgia. Culture, good food, good schools, headquarters of several mega-corporations, cost of living is great.
 
Oh, temps are always nice. always moderate, summer's are never too hot, winters are always above freezing (on avg).

Yep, good call. Over twenty years ago, my wife and I searched the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area of North Carolina for a place to settle down. Unfortunately, there were no jobs available, so we stayed with our families, here on the north coast.
 
I have had the pleasure to visit Yuma, Arizona on many occasions for business. It is a delightful little city full of recreational opportunities and haught cuisine. The temps are just a bit warmish in the summer, but nothing that can't be combatted by staying indoors with the air conditioning turned on full blast.

I would stay away from California, it's like tempting the grim reaper every day. Our earthquakes come in swarms and the aftershocks are usually magnitudes higher on the Richter scale than the primary shock. There is serious concern that the state may soon fall off into the Pacific Ocean and sink when "the big one" hits along the San Andreas Fault. Besides that, there are few jobs and the cost of living is atrocious.

Never been to Yuma, so I can't say much about it. I'd *personally* rather be up twords Prescott/Prescott valley. It's a very nice quiet little town of about 40,000 people. Never really gets much warmer than 90 and up there and it is a TRUE dry heat, and never gets much colder than 25.

It's about an hour from Luke AFB and an hour and a half from Phoenix proper. Flagstaff/Sedona are nice leisurely 30-60 minutes away for skiing and mountain activities.

No: hurricanes, noreasters, locusts, earthquakes, mudslides, forest fires, floods, tornadoes

Plus, get 4 distinct seasons

No. We get ALL of those, except in moderation. The Delmarva peninsula may not, but that's because it's so damned flat.
 
Seattle is the place to go. We get the best weather. Midatlantic is way too humid and nasty. NC is hell in the summer

You're thinking of the Carolina coast, not the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Yeah, even then, it isnt all that bad in the summer in Raleigh and Charlotte. It could be worse. It ranges from 85-95 with varying levels of humidity. We have seasons too though, which rocks. Believe it or not we get snow occasionally...
