Huntsville, Al area isn't bad, but not glamorous.
Guntersville lake and wilson/wheeler lake are both close. Some great fishing.

Seemed pretty aligned with your request.

Seems like somewhere in middle of TX would fit the bill. Like hill or wine country Between Dallas and Austin.

Thinking like the Temple or Waco area.

No hurricane
No earthquake
Rarely drought
No endless rain
short winters
cheap land
no masks
no fear of high-velocity lead.

Only problem for me would be you're pretty far from major airports.

Looking at your list, and comparing it to the natural disaster risk map



I'm going Bisbee AZ, Elko NV, Willamette Valley, St. George Utah.

I would have zero problem with the winters… but you a full house generator and pay attention to the weather… if you see it coming, go to town and stock up on shite….. but the summers and scenery are just unreal.

I enjoy them. Being snowed in is underrated.

Mars?
With an average temp of -81F, I don’t think Mars is an option based on OP criteria. Plus it’s a little far away.

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it's cold as Hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you didn't
