Is the south as cold as like the northern US? I currently live in the mid-atlantic US but if I could actually afford to move I think I would want somewhere a little colder than where I am now
Yeah, you’re not going to get that in Australia. The latitude goes down to about 42° South in Tasmania. Boston is about 42° North. I know there’s much more to the climate than just latitude, but gives you some idea.
Interesting that you’d like it colder. I’ve moved from Australia to Atlantic Canada and much as I’m loving it here - there’s a lot to said for a more temperate climate.

I just hate the summer, fall is fine here but I’d rather it be colder all the time in exchange for not being incredibly hot in the summer
You might want to look into Scandinavia, Finland, Iceland, the Benelux countries, Northern Germany, Scotland, or Ireland, then.
Of just anywhere in sufficiently high mountains, I guess 🤷
Yeah Ireland seems really nice, that would probably be one of my top picks if I was moving
As a sassenach I shouldn’t really be encouraging this but just been up to Glasgow and it’s a very compelling proposition!
It also seems to have a very cheap network of flights into the rest of Europe
Apparently yes, in the sense that our buildings are so terribly insulated that there’s no real inside/outside temperature difference.
