Best Cities for Sunshine Lovers

For some people, sunshine isn't a nice-to-have — it's a requirement. If grey winters tank your mood and energy, you need a city where the sun actually shows up. The sunniest cities deliver 2,500+ hours of sunshine annually.

But sunshine alone isn't enough. Great sunny cities combine clear skies with livable conditions: not so hot that you're trapped indoors, not so remote that you're isolated. The best ones give you vitamin D without the downsides.
