To clarify by "area" I mean the region you live in. Can be province/state or country.

For my county ( Trøndelag, 42 200 sq km ) the place with the mildest climate (mildest winters and smallest annual range) would be the island of Sula. As I refuse to use the old 61-90 normals when the new ones are to be used in two weeks I will link to the 91-2020 climate on Infoclimat (yes, lots of mistakes with high/lows and records, but the mean is close to correct). Annual mean 7.5C. For Mid-Norway region it would be Svinøy which is a little warmer especially in winter (mean 8.1C). Infoclimat Sula 91-20

For Oklahoma, the mildest place would probably be in the southeast corner around Idabel. The summers are less hot than the western part of the state and the winters are the mildest in the state.

Wilson's Prom, 100%. Cape Otway is a contender as well.

Any of the sites facing the Southern Ocean in Australia are quite mild. Some sites in the south west of Western Australia have a difference of only around 7.0c between the mean average max temps in the hottest and coldest months. The other thing to take note of is the extreme 'changeability', with these sites ( having a humungous continental land mass to the north, and a chilly Southern Ocean to the south ) sometimes having max temps in the summer months into the mid and high 40c's ! Red Rocks Point on the Nullarbor Plain section of the Great Australian Bight, is a classic example with the worlds hottest temp measured at an open ocean site, 49.1c in Jan 2019. Jan means 25.5c and July 18.7c... a 6.8c difference summer to winter !
Are there any better on the Aussie mainland below 30*S ?
Norfolk Is and Lord Howe Is are also quite mild. Norfolk's all time high is only 28.4c and the lowest max is 13.8c. Hottest month averages 25c and coldest month averages 18.3c. 6.7c difference summer to winter.

In my area, as in within Umeå municipality, Holmön is the mildest official station, with an annual mean of 5'C (red). It can also get surprisingly warm summer and spring days because the area around the station is very rocky. However, the best climate would be in the city center and on the urban hills (so by the hospital, and in Mariehem where I used to live with my ex). Also some of the western buroughs like Umedalen, Backen and Grubbe in Umeå would work fine, as well as anywhere along the E12 westward on a slope so that the altitude is less than about 70m, but isn't in a valley. These places would get warmer days from April-August (though less sun and colder, snowier winters). These places are marked in yellow.  Within 100km, the warmest official station is still on Holmön. The real warmest climate would still be on the south facing slopes of the hill-islands of the High Coast outside Örnsköldsvik, marked in red. The best climate would be on the south facing slopes within Örnsköldsvik and nearby suburbs, marked in blue. Summer temperatures should be pretty similar to central Umeå, maybe a little warmer lows. But winter and fall should be a fair bit milder, especially in terms of lows. I'd guess about 22/13'C for July and -1/-8'C for January  For the whole country, the mildest official station is Falsterbo, marked in red. The best climate would be central Malmö and Lund (blue)  I think central Kalmar might also be a contender for best climate. Not quite as warm as Malmö or Lund, but significantly sunnier, I'd guess about 200h sunnier annually.  |

Because it's by far the warmest climate in Sweden in terms of average highs, which makes it my favorite climate, which makes me enthusiastic about it, and I wanna move there because it's the best Sweden has to offer. |

I live in Raleigh, NC but it would depend what you mean by area.
If you speak about the whole state, of course Southwestern NC (Wilmington, Southport, Topsail Beach, Morehead City, Jacksonville) as well as the Outer Banks (Cape Hatteras) would take the cake - especially in the winter.
As for as the Raleigh-Durham area or metro - Johnston County, Eastern Harnett County, Southern Wake will be the mildest in the winter at least.

Montauk, it’s the closest thing to an oceanic climate on the east coast of North America after Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Montauk misses Cfb by being 0.9°F (0.5°C) too warm and thus falls under Cfa. Montauk and NYC winters are almost identical, however summers in Montauk are roughly 6°F (3.3°C) cooler than in NYC.

Mildest to me is the mildest winters. Nowhere in the state has oppressive summer weather. This means the east of the state, along Lake Michigan, and as far south as possible. It is common for those areas to get rain while further north or west gets snow. Lake Michigan brings milder weather all year especially with wind from the east. In the spring this causes some cold gloomy days while the inland areas are nice and warm. The lake can freeze, but it usually does not and only the end of winter has much ice cover. Sometimes these areas can see lake effect snow, but the wind has to be just right for this to happen. West wind is the most common and East is the least. Mildest area in Milwaukee city limits: Downtown along the lake and in the UHI. The UHI of the Third Ward neighborhood (blue) should be more than the extra lake breeze of the Upper East Side (red).  The mildest weather station in Wisconsin is Kenosha, a city in the far southeast corner. Weather stations are small black circles in the picture below. Kenosha city station averages 30.4/16.4 (-0.9/-8.7) in January and 79.3/63.5 (26.3/17.5) in July. Milwaukee airport is the arrow south of the city next to "32". It averages 28.9/15.6 (-1.7/-9.1) and 80.1/63.5 (26.7/17.5) Further Inland, Union Grove is west of Racine. 28.2/11.8 (-2.1/-11.2) and 81.6/60.7 (27.6/15.9) The mildest place in the state could be three spots. My guess is the red spot #1.
1) The extreme southeast corner of the state, along the shore of Lake Michigan (red) 2) Wind Point, further north but more exposed (blue) 3) Downtown Milwaukee, further north but more UHI (black)  |

Depends on your definition of "area". Within Saskatchewan it's the extreme southwest of the province, the area around Cypress Hills and Maple Creek, with average highs just below freezing in the winter and average highs above 27C in the summer. Much more similar to the adjacent parts of Alberta than to anywhere else in Saskatchewan. Within Canada it would be coastal BC for sure, with above-freezing temperatures almost all year round and mild temperatures in the summer. Victoria would be the mildest major city in the country - average highs of 7C in January and 20C in August at the weather station closest to downtown, 8.5C in January / 24C in July at the University, and 7C in December / 22.4C in July and August at the airport. I looked up Cypress Hills and it gave a subarctic climate. The article should mention the climate box is at 1196m! Link to wikiMaple Creek has similar highs to me, but 5C colder at night with half the precipitation. For being 7 degrees further north and 500m higher (764m vs 222m), it's pretty mild and not something most would expect from the province. I can reach a similar annual mean by driving 3hours north. Nearest wiki box is Rhinelander at 45.6N and 472m. |

Within Ontario, Tobermory has to be the mildest with 24.9C difference between warmest and coldest month (18.0C to -6.9C).
Toronto Islands is a close second with 25.1C difference (21.1C to -4.0C).
For comparison, Ottawa is a lot more extreme with 31.4C difference (21.2C to -10.2C)
