Also, once in a while it is very windy which is not too pleasant. The air feels fresh as well because it is somewhat windy all the time. I remember stepping out of the plane from Edinburgh once and feeling a weird sensation of quietness in my ears - turned out my ears just got used to constant wind.

Not really, rather people get used to where they have to live and then rationalize the fact that they "like it" because they don't really have a choice.

When you really start looking at people with true choices, i.e. the very rich, they want moderate weather with hot enough summers for water sports to be a viable activity, but nice enough that other outdoor activities aren't prohibitively hot and extreme weather isn't a concern.

A good example of this is Lake Oconee Georgia. It's basically bumfuck nowhere yet there's a plethora of multi-million dollar homes because the weather and geography are what falls in the ideal range for most people. So of course it's generally inaccessible to the average person but the super wealthy are gating it off and enjoying it.

In fact, this post wouldn't exist if what you said is true.
