This isn’t just about a brutal winter or the occasional blizzard. No, this list ranks cities based on their average annual temperatures, meaning both summer highs and winter lows were factored in. Because let’s be real, some places just never really thaw out.

Would we trade a little less frostbite for a few extra degrees? Of course. But for now, we’ll keep layering up, swapping snowstorm survival stories, and reminding the rest of the country that yes, we live here on purpose!
