must be in the Sun Belt

I'd try to sell you on Minnesota except for this :-)

Well, we do get tons of sun (similar solar insolation numbers to Houston, TX), but it can be bright and sunny and still -25F

I had a friend who did try to sell me on Minneapolis. What put me off ultimately was finding out that central AC is difficult to find outside of the Sun Belt.

I guess in older homes. There's not a single home being built in the Minneapolis metro area (in my experience!) that doesn't have central A/C. This is a state of temperature extremes! It gets hot here in summer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_of_Minneapolis%E2%80%9...
