Poll options are listed from top to bottom accordingly by my preferences; thus, my vote's for Edirne. You'll notice that I used solely Eurasia, instead of Europe/Asia. Why, you ask? Because 1. Finding a good climate in warm front-infested Europe is troublesome, and 2. So I don't trigger the delicate Russophiles on here. I. Edirne, Turkey (Eurasia) II. Beechworth, Victoria (Australia) III. Ifrane, Morocco (Africa) IV. Orofino, Idaho (North America) V. Bariloche, Argentina (South America) VI. Grytviken, South Georgia (Antarctica)

Beechworth. All the other ones have summers that are too dry.

Beechworth, that part of north east Victoria is pretty good. As an aside, I note that the winter mean max temps are lowish for the altitude ( compared to slightly higher altitude sites north of the Murray like Tumba. Is latitude coming into play here ?

Moreso geography and station placement, than latitude. Tumba Post Office is a rather odd station; despite being 300 m higher than Khancoban AWS (1996–2020), its winter maxes are similar (1991–2020 @ Tumba = 11.0° C Jul max). Too, all Wundergound stations in Tumba report at least 1° C cooler than the BoM station. They also differ wildly in period of record (1908–1986 @ Beechworth vs 1965–2020 @ Tumba). Carabost Forest Headquarters (580 m) and Brookfield Forest Station (457 m), both on Tumba's latitude: ^Note also how cold the mins are in combination with maxes.

Beechworth for having the wettest summers and decent temperatures year round.

Edirne, an easy choice. Its summers are so much better than the rest of the pack that it outweighs advantages other climates might have regarding other variables like precipitation (Ifrane's precip total for the year is perfect but it has a distinct two-month summer and anemic record lows).
Grytviken is about as good as you'll find in the Antarctic but it's still an F from me.

Ifrane for the sunshine and pleasant summers.

Orofino for having cold winters while still having quite warm summers. Could use a lot more snow though.

Bariloche by far. Grytviken perhaps a distant 2nd.

Barlioche for me as well.

Bariloche. Those summers are perfect, winters are snowy, and it has a beautiful lake

Orofino for probably having the most snow and the best summers

Orofino for probably having the most snow and the best summers Not even close. Bariloche has double the snowfall of Orofino…and then there's Grytviken. I'd wager that even Edirne has at least similar if not more snowfall than Orofino, despite being much milder—all comes down to frontal patterns (plus the extra sea-effect snow which characterise NW Turkey winters). Ifrane most certainly has more snowfall than Orofino, too. Orofino's December is truly pitiful RE the snow/temps combo, hence being so low on my heirarchy (jointly with its distinct two-month summer).

Certainly Grytviken, no contest.

Edirne.
Are these your favourites by inland or maritime standards?

Edirne. Are these your favourites by inland or maritime standards? Well obviously I don't go by those standards anymore ( if that's a serious question?).

Orofino.
I really like the dry/warm summers. Would rather winters be cooler and more snowy, but its the best of the lot.
