Springfield, Missouri if you want a sprinkle of culture.

I don’t think “heat” qualifies
Exactly…heat in a place known to be hot feels pretty benign in the age of AC.

East Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina. That area. Really too far east for tornado setups, too far west for Atlantic hurricanes, too far south for major blizzards, too far north for “most” bad gulf hurricanes.

Seattle is pretty nice if you can endure the winter gloom
Seattle weather is so bad it pissed people off so much they created grunge rock.

Abu Dhabi has the least risk for natural disasters if you can handle the heat

"Good" and "bad" weather is really all subjective

???? I hope it’s dry heat
Otherwise you can have a NOLA summer
San Diego’s the only answer in this thread… stay classy

Somewhere like Monterrey, CA weather-wise. Earthquake risk though.
Some friends live in Ventura. They don't have AC or central heat in their house.

My daughter grew up in Alabama and now lives in Seattle with her husband. I routinely check the forecast out there and 26-28 days out of 30 it’s 30-45 degrees, rainy and/or gray. She’s miserable. I visited last July and it was beautiful with sunshine and 80ish degrees every day. They said it’s cold and gray for 8 months but summers make up for it. Maybe. I dunno.

Palo Alto
It stays like 65-75 degrees there year round and rarely rains there
You do have earthquake potential though

Away from the West Coast…cities like Albuquerque…Boise…Salt Lake City

Just on straight natural disasters of all types, Delaware (oddly) wins. If you add in exceptional weather all year then Hawaii takes the crown.
Using similar criteria but staying CONUS, South Carolina is the leader.

Did you see what happened to them 6 months ago? Entire towns got flooded out. Some of these hurricanes that hit the gulf coast stall over Appalachia and dump record amounts of rain. Camille did the same thing and a few others.

Southwest, east of the Rockies. No tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires, or earthquakes. Just gotta deal with some heat and droughts

Denver, CO. They get snow but it’s not that bad.

Technically, I agree with you. However, most can agree what generally constitutes what is considered good and bad weather, and outliers. A gentle cloudy spring rain can be beautiful. Three months of that plus damn chilly is suicidal.
