I made a site exactly to find these kinds of places called Nomad List.

Here's mild (20'C - 30'C) cities with fast internet and many young tech enabled people there to socialize with:

https://nomadlist.com/mild-cities-with-fast-internet-and-man...

1) Lisbon 2) Mexico City 3) Melbourne 4) Tokyo 5) Hong Kong

The more popular cities don't show with this filter query because they're a bit too warm now (>30'C). Try removing warm and seeing what you get!

Interesting. When a city lists a dollar figure, is that the monthly rent, or total cost? (rent + estimate of meals etc)

It's the Nomad Cost, which is the cost of living per month for a person living mostly from hotels/Airbnbs and eating outside. If you click the sort dropdown and select local cost, that's the cost of living for a local.
