Both Florida and especially Texas are too large for such a blanket statement.

Weather-wise, Central East Texas is perfect if you survive August and September.

Austin (suburban outskirts) and Dallas (Plano & Frisco) are nice. Houston is way too humid.

North East US is way too cold, I like a 70F winter.

You won't find a 70F winter in Dallas... you'll be lucky for high 60s in the deep winter months. Most weeks are more in the 50s. That said, given how climate change is progressing, it tends to be warmer until January, so if you just want the nice temperatures for your holiday plans, then it's a decent option!

It's a nice 66F right now, high of 77F Wednesday.

Yeah it's 50s in the winter frequently, but the same week it can be 70-80s haha.

Allows you to eventually go outside instead of the whole season being cold and miserable.

Yep- though I'm leaving to be closer to family, Austin suburbs are a nice in pretty much every axis other than commute, which hasn't been an issue since going remote.
