Living out here in the west is not the best place to be if you can not stand heat.
- It is super hot beyond the usual heat of the worst summer in other places in the country.
Also, you never get a break from the heat nearly. It is this way from late March all the way through a few days before Thanksgiving in November! That is the majority of the year of having to crank the living heck out of your central heating and air conditioning system on the air conditioning setting! Also the air quality is pretty horrid as well. It is so bad that portable air purification systems can not even get rid of it. But the constant need for living in air conditioning nearly all year round is the real issue. It makes it so that you are paying ridiculous high prices for electric bills most of the year. The old trick of using portable air conditioning to reduce energy use will not work here. It is just not good all around. Why am I here then you’re probably wondering? Well, I am sort of stuck because of a recent cut back on work, so I cannot afford to move out of state. I am waiting though for things to improve and as soon as they do, I will be out of here faster than the speed of light! I just do not dig having to live in air conditioning non stop for the majority of the year. It is not healthy both physically, mentally and also is bad for your bank account.
