LA/San Diego have perfect weather by comparison, and as importantly, a completed grid of beautiful interstate highways 😍😍😍
Most of Los Angeles has the kind of heat the East Coast is now experiencing most days all summer, except within a mile of the ocean (even hotter in the San Fernando Valley). It also has more miles of freeway that are slowed to a bumper-to-bumper crawl every day than anywhere else.
Endless games evaluates the quality of life based on roadmaps of highways.
The other thing is that interstate 80 completely traverses California to San Francisco, while on the eastern end it doesn't even enter NYC. Can you believe that insanity??? I-80 should have been routed into the city, across Long Island, and then over a sound crossing to Rhode Island and end somewhere there, not just randomly end at I-95.
But there again EE you have that thing about 'connects to'.
And there again there's that thing about 'alternative transportation' should-be's.
You had it better in your post previous to the quoted one.
that makes me wanna play global warming twister now. zee ?...u spin ok ?
That makes two of us. Let's twist away. 
The all-time hottest temperature recorded in Los Angeles County was 121 degrees Fahrenheit, set in Woodland Hills in 2020.
In heat waves - its actually how high the low is at night and how many consecutive nights that 'high' low extends - that is really nasty.
Apparently very few places have ever had a low of over 100 degrees F - in the US.
Like in Death Valley. Aptly named.
But lows in the 80s and 90s' are plenty nasty.
In the 70s it appears to depend on the humidity.
70 degrees is a critical temperature.
Lows in the 60s - even with high humidity are giving some relief.
And LA does not have the miserable humidity that NY does.
But you managed to achieve a new personal best at middle distance running plus got your weight down to 155.
Both in the 'hated' NYC area.
Here we go with traffic and road maps again. One boy's obsession spamming his hate for his life.
Get a grip.
And LA does not have the miserable humidity that NY does.
It's an objective fact that New York does not have relatively high humidity, even in the summer.
To be precise, here is the graph of monthly average humidity,
cf London, for example:
While London has clearly higher humidity overall, it is more relevant that the average humidity in the summer is very similar to New York.
The relevant difference is in the temperatures. New York has average daily max temperature reaching 30 degrees Celsius in July, while London (which can certainly be warm on occasion with a 4 degree urban heat island) only reaches averages of 23 degrees.
The average annual relative humidity in New York City is around 58%. It is actually more humid in winter.
In Los Angeles average yearly humidity is 52% and also higher in winter.
Not a big difference. However, any comparison of weather between a southern west coast city and a northern east coast city is ludicrous.

True. Surprisingly, a stats site says the warmest month in LA has average max temperatures only 25 degrees Celsius, compared with 30 degrees for NY! I would not have guessed that, to be honest.
The first mile or two inland in LA is milder in summer due to prevailing ocean breezes, but in the San Fernando Valley part of LA (east of the first range of low hills) where more than 1/2 the population lives, average August high is 33 degrees Celsius.
Hot and near 100% humidity is hellish. Fortunately, it usually means a thunderstorm is coming with its delightful effect on temperature.
I spent 10 years of my childhood living about one mile from the beach in Orange County. Virtually nobody had air conditioning. I can count the number of 90 degree Farenheight days I experienced there on my fingers. Ten miles inland summer highs were mid-80s to low-90s with a few 100s every year.
You could move out to Avalon on Catalina Island (22 miles out to sea) where low temperatures below 50 degrees Farenheight or high temperatures over 75 degrees are extremely rare.
Or you could live in East LA near San Bernardino and burn all summer.
Or move to New Orleans and boil in the heat and high humidity year around. It's a great city with fabulous cuisine though.
Nothing is worse than heat
Our resident weather complainer lives in NewYork City which is 90% buildings and roadways. Even surrounded by water these take a long time to cool down after a long sunny day. In fact the water creates so much humidity it does more to keep the nights uncomfortable than to help cooling even with onshore breezes.
I lived there for 42 years with no airconditioning at home. It was rough but as a kid in the 50s and 60s no one had A/C.
Stating that you lived in New York isn't the flex you think it is. I don't even visit popular destinations/take part in typical New Yorker activities because I can't stand the culture so much that I want to "boycott" as much of the NYC experience as possible before my dad retires and we move. I don't want to "look" or "seem" like a "New Yorker" when outside doing stuff. Everyone bashes California like it's some stereotype but NY is basically all the negatives of California x10, with none of the positives. Worse Traffic, worse weather, worse food, worse personalities, more mental illness, less beautiful highways...etc. I try and spend more of money in Long Island where possible. NYC isn't even technically the mainland of the United States with the exception of the Bronx, just a bunch of islands stopped together lol, and Staten Island is just...pffftt 😆😆

It's obvious "culture" isn't your thing.
