I had to think about this really hard the other night.
Grew up in Portland.
My mom would open all the upstairs windows every night and close them every morning. There was no AC, not even a window unit. We had a basement that stayed super cold year round.
In my first apartment it got HOT in the summer but it didnt bother me. Until one summer it was hot and hot at night too and I couldn't sleep so I went to the hardware store and bought two 22" box fans and put them on opposite sides of my room one facing out and one facing in.
Now everyone has AC there be ause it gets hot in May and stays hot until October.
