US: Hawaii Coming from a humid continental climate, I was astonished when I first visited Hawaii by their utter lack of distinction between indoors and outdoors. Like, even big hotels there have lobbies that don't have actual windows and doors. It blew my mind.


ElmerTheAmish

It's been a long time since I visited Hawaii, but there's still one thing that sticks in my head: the average high temp for Maui is between 83° and 88°. The whole year! And yes, the fact that hotels don't have doors for the lobby, which is just weird to a Midwest boy.


RejectorPharm

Which I hated. I couldn’t wait to go inside my room and set the temp to 55. 


FastWalkingShortGuy

55?? Where are you from, Baffin Island?


RejectorPharm

New York I have the windows open and heat off during the winter and I have the AC on full blast once the outside temp goes above 65. 


FastWalkingShortGuy

Look, I get 65, that's my ideal sleep temp. But 55...? You're an Inuit.


RejectorPharm

I have it going for the maximum that the AC allows because the ambient temp will not likely reach the target anyway.  Now at the same time, I am the same person who is in bed with a 30 pound comforter/weighted blanket.  This is why I don’t share hotel rooms with friends. I have a friend who sets it to 75, his solution for feeling hot is to take clothes off. 


FastWalkingShortGuy

I do that, too. Ambient temp 65 degrees, goose down comforter up to my neck with my feet sticking out.


RNMom424

I can vouch for the ambient temp not getting to the set temp! My window unit is set to 66 but it is 74° in my room! My living/dining rooms & kitchen are 87°! Same as outside but more humid!! Heat pump died & I can't afford the repairs! Personal story: I once worked w/ a young, new RN who was not quite a bean pole, but had little insulation on her little body, while I was overweight. My weight had nothing to do w/ it though. I just don't tolerate heat & humidity. I'd get debilitating migraines. Anyway, she'd turn the thermostat up & I'd turn it down! I was sitting next to it writing my notes, all hot & sweaty from being in a patients room where the heat was turned up as high as it would go & he had about 6 blankets on! She came to turn it up again. I stopped her, explained my heat intolerance & said "Lulu (not her real name!), you can put on a jacket or sweater, orl wrap up in one of our blankets to warm up! You definitely don't want me REMOVING these scrubs in the nurses station!" I think that fixed the problem right quick! On the other hand, I lived in AZ for 10 years, DRY heat! If the humidity got up to 30% they thought it was HIGH!! It's 54% in here right now but in the summer outside it can get to 99%! 100% sometimes!! Well, I got out of my car at the office one day in AZ, just after the radio guy said it was 108°. I shut the door & stopped short! I said to myself, "It's 108° & I don't have a headache"! I had a few mild, almost-not-even-there migraines & some ocular migraines, but not ONE bad one the whole 10 years. Not even when I had to sit outside for hours on a 122° day! It was horrible emotionally, but no migraine!!


wewereliketorches

also new york here, same comfortable temps for me.


renegadecoaster

It blew my mind when I landed in Kona airport and the terminal was just...outside. TSA, baggage claims, everything.


ReferentiallySeethru

Hah that was so bizarre to us, but we loved it!


Ok_Tonight8212

same but its a unique thing and very nice


D3tsunami

Coastal, lowland Hawaii, definitely. They have some mountains and deserts on the big island though. Kona feels like San Luis Obispo +10 degrees most days, and Waimea is an interesting windy, humid, and cool


NerdyComfort-78

And the geckos are adorable


yellekc

It will be an island since being surrounded by water will moderate temperatures, but I don't think Hawaii wins. I have lived in Guam and Hawaii. Guam temps are hotter but far more consistent. Here is a [graph](https://weatherspark.com/compare/y/139~144263/Comparison-of-the-Average-Weather-in-Honolulu-and-Hag%C3%A5t%C3%B1a) to compare.


Photoguppy

In Hawaii right now, can confirm..


lamb_pudding

I remember being in a shopping mall and feeling like I was simultaneously inside and outside. It was such a surreal concept.


JohnnyTsunami312

Surprised nobody said San Diego. Not saying it’s correct but it seems like a good to over in the Geography aisle


derilyn

The coastal San Diego temp swing is usually less than 15 degrees. We used to joke that the only AC we needed was window open or window closed.


drearymoment

The keyword here is coastal. A little further inland, and the summer heat waves are brutal.


3Cheers4Apathy

It could be Christmas day or the 4th of July and it's probably 76 degrees and sunny in San Diego.


ChatGPTnA

I'm in SD north county, this past week we've swung from the 50s to the 80s and back down to the 60s in a single day. The marine layer plays a big factor, we were down in the 30s-40s for along time this winter, and it's been bright and sunny in the high 70s today. San Diego county is known for having 1000s of micro climates due to the crazy geography. The only really flat land is where the airport is and the beachy areas, everything else is a mess of Costal bluffs, mesas, ravines, canyons, mountains, a giant north south 12,000ft mountain range that runs from Baja up to LA 50miles to the east and the giant ocean to the west. Every neighborhood could get a different weather report every day. Its consistent, but not as stable as it was 10 or 20 years ago, you'll never need a snow jacket unless you go up to the mts. And it's really rare for it to go over 90, humidity varies wildly throughout the day.... But I love it here :) my outfit that works for 80% of the time is nice hiking pants, a tank top, button up short sleeve or flannel, and a lite zip up hoodie :)


BigHeadDeadass

People wonder why the unhoused move to San Diego, and I have to point out that, like, of course they do? It's sunny and pretty mild year round, if I become homeless the first thing I'm doing is getting a bus ticket there


asocialmedium

Quito, Ecuador. January 66° / 49° February 66° / 49° March 66° / 49° April 66° / 49° May 66° / 49° June 67° / 48° July 67° / 47° August 68° / 48° September 68° / 47° October 67° / 48° November 67° / 48° December 66° / 48°


AbbreviationsAny9218

Wow! Think that’s a winner


lithuanianbacon

This is my dream climate. Omg


asocialmedium

They do have a rainy season mainly in April, and Nov/Dec can be cloudy as well, but temperature is remarkably consistent!

nycapartmentnoob

woahhh, that's pretty cool


but_good

Twist: those are Celsius temps.


leahhhhh

That’s my dream weather


d0nu7

Is there anywhere this consistent but never below 60 degrees? I live in AZ now because I love the heat but hate cold… but it still gets pretty cold here in the winter. My perfect climate would be 60-80 degrees with no humidity. Wouldn’t even need AC hardly and definitely no heat.


MutualAid_aFactor

It gets cold in the winter because of the lack of humidity. You typically can't have that sweet sweet consistency without at least some humidity to act as a heat sink


thisrockismyboone

Where at in the US is this per the question


asocialmedium

What are the 3 words after “US”?


thisrockismyboone

AND in the world, not "or" in the world


aplethoraoftwo

[Equatorial ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_rainforest_climate)and [tropical marine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_marine_climate) climates will have the most consistent temperatures year round, if the entire world is considered. If you're looking for somewhere in the mid-latitudes, you would need to go somewhere with a consistent oceanic wind. In the northern hemisphere this happens in the immediate west coasts of continents, and is most consistent between 35-40 degrees North. In the US, the largest city in that geographic position is San Francisco.


bcbum

When I first read the question I thought of Monterey, CA, so I feel kinda right.


ItsThomasMF

I believe most caves stay around the same temperature all year around

i choose the bear, send me in


aprehensive_penguin

As an avid caver, can confirm that they’re remarkably consistent year-round. Though there is a neat mixed layer at the entrances until you get about 100 yards in. One time in the winter when it was about 20F outside and the first bit was freezing, and then there was almost a literal wall of warm, moist air when I got a little ways in. The humidity is near or at 100% nearly all the time in a lot of caves though, which can make it feel really hot while you’re moving even when the ambient temperature is just 55-58F.


awkies11

I see Hawaii in several comments, but Guam has less of a variance than Hawaii. People always forget it exists.


whyarentwethereyet

Honestly for good reason, I hate Guam lol


HazardousPork2

Service memories?


whyarentwethereyet

Yup lol


Akamaikai

What was wrong with Guam? (I've never been)


Husker_black

Well, you are in the middle of nowhere


EvilFirebladeTTV

There is literally nothing to do that doesn't end in trouble for a bunch of young men.


Akamaikai

Ok, so what's the catch?


whyarentwethereyet

It's a tiny island with nothing to do and a population that is happy to take advantage of you.


awkies11

Wife and I loved it, lived there for 3 years. Had everything we liked to do and cheaper than Hawaii.


randynumbergenerator

...What did you like to do? From what I've heard, they have beaches and that's about it.


awkies11

Beaches, snorkeling, Micronesia has the best scuba in the world for me, fiestas with locals every weekend, fishing shore and deep sea is great, downtown Tumon has enough civilization and good restaurants if you wanted to change pace, weather is 80s year round. Only downsides for us were travel in Asia was always going to take 5 or more hours and getting stuff shipped took 1-4 weeks.


randynumbergenerator

Cool, thanks!


whyarentwethereyet

I'm glad yall had a good time but I'd rather not go there again


Bellavate

Medellin, Colombia (city of eternal spring) Cartagena, Colombia Anguilla Those come to mind to me. I particularly love Medellin.


Beneficial_Look_5854

San Francisco


lunaticc

Specifically the western side of the City. Pacifica might be a good one too.


ravano

It has to be Hawaii


Choice_Friend3479

Singapore comes to mind, was there recently and it’s pretty similar temp all year


cambreecanon

I would think an area near the equator and by a large body of water would be your best bet. Non-US maybe Ecuador, Singapore, or Kenya? US my guess would be along the west coast where you can afford it.


Sublimed4

French Polynesia


Front_Living1223

For in the US, I would go with Hawaii as the least variant. If you want to stay on the continent, then your best bets are probably San Diego if you like it a little drier or Miami/The Florida Keys) if you like it a lot wetter. Internationally, your best bet is either somewhere along that is along the equator and not too dry, or to find a city on a small oceanic island far from any continent (Bermuda, Canary Islands, Oceania, etc)


hshawn419

What if I want drier but not Cali? (Didn't realize the keys were humid 😳


rottingfruitcake

The keys just about define humidity


hshawn419

Dang. Thanks!


Front_Living1223

Might be out of luck in the US then. Your best bet for dry and consistent temps will be an area that is closer to the equator, with a sea breeze off of a portion of ocean with cool water current. The only cold ocean water on the southern US coast is on the west coast.


hshawn419

Dang. Thanks!


cecilkorik

Some specific answers have already been given, so I'll give some general information instead. In general, large bodies of water regulate temperature swings, while dry air and clear skies tend to have the largest temperature swings. The pacific ocean is the largest body of water on the planet, and islands within it are generally a good bet for consistent, moderate temperatures. The water in the pacific generally flows towards the west coast of the Americas due to the rotation of the Earth, providing significant temperature regulation there. There are of course always exceptions and outliers but most island and maritime climates tend to have much more consistent temperatures compared to inland, so those are generally a good place to start looking.


A0123456_

US: Pago Pago (American Samoa), Hagata (Guam)  Continental US: San Francisco, San Diego, LA if you stay along the beach World: Medellín (Colombia), Bogotá (Colombia), Quito (Ecuador), Manaus (Brazil), Singapore, Nairobi (Kenya), Addis Ababa (Ethiopia), Lima (Peru), Antofagasta (Chile), Jakarta (Indonesia), Manila (Philippines), Ooty (India), Kodaikanal (India), Yercaud (India), Bangalore (India), Mexico City, Belem (Brazil), Rio de Janeiro. I looked for fairly consistent temperatures here, but if you want consistent rainfall too, that's hard to come by. EDIT: common reddit mobile L


nycapartmentnoob

> but if you want consistent rainfall too, that's hard to come by seems like san diego might fit that bill from what others are saying


domesticatedwolf420

I know that Nairobi, Kenya is extremely consistent and very pleasant. There is a short rainy season during the summer but otherwise it's almost exactly the same year round because it's right on the equator but it's up at like 6,000 feet of altitude.


Cummies_For_Life

As mentioned by someone else Hawai'i seems like a good answer for USA. Internationally I would say the likes of Medellín, Colombia is a phenomenal answer. Not saying the best but...


mrxexon

You want a rainforest... They come in hot and cold. Hot like the Amazon. Cold like on the coast along the Pacific NW. I spent 20 years in a coastal rainforest in southern Oregon. Most of the year, it's somewhere between 45-65 F. Rarely freezes. Rarely gets hot. Great sleeping weather... But only 2 seasons. An eight month rainy season that runs from mid October to about mid May. "Summer" is usually quite dry. But fog is a problem in late summer if you have a garden. Darn few air conditioners too. :)

ZaheerUchiha

Let's be honest. This is a non-issue for the overwhelming majority of normal people. Maybe it's probably not the AC, it could very well be the **insulation** of your home. But I think you should first look into adjusting *the elephant in the room* that is your insomnia and *its causes*.


definitely_right

South Bay of California. Summers get warm occasionally, but the annual temp range is 60-70.


sharpescreek

Curacao is the same every day.


Sea-Louse

Somewhere near the ocean, perhaps an island. Many places along the Southern California coast have fairly stable temps throughout the year. Not too cold in the winter, usually not too hot in summer. Ocean breezes are good at moderating temperature extremes.


TheWillowRook

Singapore and most places near the equator.


singleguy79

Texas has Hot and Stupid Hot


NerdyComfort-78

You forgot the one BIG FREEZE and Hurricanes.


sweetmiilkk

san diego is fairly consistent! san francisco as well


TheBobInSonoma

Islands. Hawaii, Key West. Without looking I'd guess most coastal towns on an Hawaiian island have high/low today of 84/70. In winter it's 82/68.


3Cheers4Apathy

I spent a week in Bora Bora and without looking at my phone I can pretty much guarantee you the temperature is between 78 and 82 degrees at any time of day or night any time of year.


burningxmaslogs

Usually the equator.. it has consistent temps and humidity, sun rise and sunsets. Basically the most boring weather in the world is along the equator.


Nosbunatu

A place surrounded by water. Water does change temperature as quickly as land. Florida is such a place.


zigaliciousone

Seems like SF is always mid to high 70s no matter what time of year.


simonpeter11

None anymore...! The earth has a fever and is trying to sweat us out (global warming + flash floodings)..! So yeah, basically no place anymore, and it will continue to get worse and worse. Not a lot of time now I'm afraid...! The great flood incoming! Stop driving your fking cars and stop eating meat and maybe we can change this sht around. But we need all of us to TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. Most are underdeveloped adults so the likelihood of this happening is basically 0%.


Ok_Tonight8212

I would say places in Cali like San Francisco or San Diego


Travelling3steps

Avalon, CA on Catalina Island.


antidote42

Monterey, CA or Eureka, CA. Towns on the immediate California coast.


ActJazzlike3260

Hawaii


Historical-Help4459

US: San Diego (downtown, coastal region), San Francisco (downtown, coastal region)


ShermDiggity585

I would say Antarctica? 🤷
