🇬🇷 Athens vs 🇺🇸 Jersey City

Mediterranean — very hot dry summers, mild wet winters

Athens has a classic Mediterranean climate but is notably hotter and drier than coastal Greek islands due to its inland location in the Attica basin surrounded by mountains. Summers are among the hottest in Europe; winters are mild and pleasant.

Jersey City on the Hudson River directly across from Manhattan has become a premier residential alternative to NYC. The Hudson River provides consistent breezes while the dense high-rise development along the waterfront creates wind tunnel effects. The city is essentially part of the NYC urban climate system.
