In the United States, a lot of people act like being outside in 40 degree weather is deadly. I also think Americans are less social, especially as they get older so winters tend to be a lot of sitting inside and watching TV.
It varies for sure. I live in a place with overcast and wet winters and I get SAD really bad if I'm not leaving the house, but do fine when I can get out into nature or spend time with friends.
