Unpredictable weather is the win. Tropical weather is nice, but it would get boring after an extended period of time.

I had relatives posted in Guam for a while and they were bored with 80 degrees, rain every other day, and the humidity.
They celebrated Christmas on the beach, which couldn't have been all bad, but kind of weird.

With the money we save from our low cost of living here in the midwest we can afford to go to warm places in the Winter.
As for big cities..
I have lived in big cities in the past and I will NEVER go back..
Traffic,rude people, traffic,everything is overpriced,traffic,rat race YUK!

I don't get it

I live in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
I really like it here. The people are laid back. The schools are great.
Housing cost are really low (relative to east/west coast and big cities)
No traffic.No emissions testing.
My only complaint is the weather in the Winter.
My solution to that is that I bought a snowmobile.
I head up to the U.P. of Michigan several times each Winter and I satisfy my need for speed and adrenalin that way.
