Eh? This is the principle complaint when someone tries to say Minneapolis or Chicago could become the next tech hub. I've lived in both cities.
It's also the chief complaint in Minneapolis for both new transplants and those leaving for greener (pun intended) pastures. In Chicago it's also the first complaint transplants have, but I suppose leavers tend to cite taxes first, weather second.
- tehwebguy 6y agoNot sure that most people feel this way but I feel this way because of the personal discomfort. Jackets can be added for warmth, but only a shower and change of clothes can fix the amount of sweat I experience in the humid heat.
- phil21 6y agoI'm late - but yep, totally agreed personally. I can always add clothing and largely stay indoors. In the heat I can't remove clothing, and even if I largely stay indoors even a 15 minute outdoor walk will require changing and showering. That said, I can also walk the dog in 0C weather without winter clothing on and feel completely comfortable so we may be outliers :)
