You'd be surprised; I've met plenty of people that talk about how much they like warm weather and want to move south for that reason. Personally, I lived in Arizona for a while and have no desire to live in a hot climate again.
- sudosteph 7y agoI think it's the snow that really gets people. It just interferes with everyday life in a way heat doesn't (ie, limiting car usage and driving safety until it's cleared). This mostly applies to car-oriented lifestyles though - since walking in high heat vs snowy or icy conditions are both quite risky. Also, there is actually a pretty strong correlation between shoveling snow and heart attacks in older folks: https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/can-shoveling-snow-put-your-heart-at-risk-2017120612887 https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/can-shoveling-snow-put-y... . So it definitely makes sense to relocate if that is a factor.
- magduf 7y agoThese sound like good reasons not to live in a car-based, suburban lifestyle. People in Manhattan don't have these problems.
