Friendly and helpful people, great climate, and lots of opportunities.

Who could ask for more ?

@Anonymous Summer is either oven or muggy humid mess anyway in warm throught the year places (only them receive high ratings), except coastal California and Portugal of course (and these places have higher rating anyway, very close to 100). And degree of oven there isn't that high, for example 30 C evenings are during heatwaves only, and they often are a bit windy (compared to still evenings in humid places) and without humidity so they feel like +27, which is not that bad, though A/C is still needed for sleeping.

Madrid overall has one of the best climates among European capitals, because of decent amount of sunshine and light, undisturbing rain pattern (sparse, but still not desert, and decently spread compared to Lisbon with excessive winter rain).

Real ovens are Las Vegas or Phoenix with 40+C highs as a norm. And the worst experience is humid ovens as in UAE or Qatar...

Climate index Very High? Really? Well, if people like living in an oven... To me +30 during the nighttime isn't a sign of a good climate
