Planning the Golden Years
(Research Question #1)

Now that you know more about the country's climate, you truly are an expert. And as with most experts, everybody is always asking for free advice.

In these final questions, you can recommend any location in the United States. These questions will take a bit more research than the first ones.

Your parents ask your advice first. They are starting to plan their retirement and want you to recommend a place to move.

• They love the sun, so they want to move to a rather dry climate.
• They don't like intense heat or cold, however, so they want someplace that doesn't have extreme high and low temperatures.

Write a short answer telling where would you recommend that your parents move and why.

Search the climate database for a city with the best mix of dry weather and mild temperatures. There is no absolute right or wrong answer to this question. Instead, you must find a location that your "parents" would like, then support your short answer with some temperature and precipitation facts for that city.
