You can go further south than Houston and find much nicer weather. Heredia, which is a suburb of San Jose, Costa Rica, is much closer to the equator than Houston, but it is in a much rainier part of the world and it is at an elevation of about 3,000 feet. You can live there all year round without having either heat or air conditioning in your home.
