I hear ya. Californians are so spoiled. This time of year, people in CA hear 30-40 degrees F and freak out about “freezing.” Meanwhile, folks in MI, WI, MN etc., would consider the same temps “summery.”

Not really. It's a matter of what temps your body gets acclimated to.

Living in SoCal, you get accustomed to warmer average temperatures than in most places around the country.

Yes........family member comes north her to Pa in the late summer early fall and thinks it’s cold. They’re so use to the extreme heat and humidity that our summers feel cool to them.

Yes, we are spoiled. However, if you spend the night on the sidewalk in 20-30 degree weather, you will find it cold indeed. When I first moved to LA from the eastern Sierras, I was colder that winter than I had ever been in the mountains. The ocean dampness makes it very cold.
