Having lived most of my life in Toronto we get both extremes, 30 to 35 Celsius in the summer (worse with the nasty humidity) and down as low as -30 C in the winter (worse because of the windchill).
We didn't have the monsoons, earthquakes, tornadoes or anything like that. In fact, in my opinion, the best weather only happens for about 2 to 3 weeks in the Fall and maybe a couple of days around the first snowfall. After that, it's all pretty crap.
I lived there because it was where I was born but later it was because I grew to truly appreciate the place.
That said, I now live in a place that rarely goes below 25C and can get a lot hotter. We are just inching out of the rainy season (good to see the sun again) and it have to note that it was really only for two months which is much (MUCH) shorter than Toronto winters.
I don't think there is anywhere that I wouldn't live for a short while but given my choice I would rather not live somewhere with all this sweat-inducing, mold-growing humidity. As they say, it's not the heat, it's the humidity. A desert with its dry air and cold nights would be welcome compared to this.
