Hello,

My wife and I are looking into to retiring from New York to Berziers.

We will visit a few days late April, to see if we like the area.

I've been doing my research into housing, ect,

One of our hesitations, is the high temperatures around July-August.

I counted 19 days over 90f. The rest of the year looks mild.

Climate change is heating up everywhere.

Is Beziers nice enough to live, that you put up with the several weeks of heat?

Do you go away when the heat comes?

I've noticed that in Beziers, there are a lot of swimming pools

Thanks,

Bill

If heat, is a concern then the South of France isn't going to be the place for you. 90F is quite mild, where I live in Austria (Vienna) that's quite normal for Summer. We often go over 100F! You're right about climate change because our summers are getting hotter and our winters are getting milder.

Same where I live in upstate New York. This summer we had three less 90plus days than Beziers.

If and when we move to Beziers, maybe mid July-mid August would be good for road tripping through the mountains. The rest of the years temps look very mild.

We'll be looking for a small house in Beziers. I'll make sure to find an insulated, double paned, heat pump air conned one, with a small pool.

Here in America, we have a crazy guy coming into power, who thinks climate change is a hoax.
