We have a fair amount of humidity here, so to be comfortable you really need the AC or a dehumidifier.
I suppose if you wanted to be tough, but not super tough, you would really only need it a few months during the summer, we only have a few weeks were it doesn’t cool down into the low 70’s at night.
Most of us grew up without AC at home, work, school or cars, now we “demand” it everywhere.

You are correct, of course but it’s also getting hotter every year. Our part of the country is having a nice summer, (I’m in WI), everywhere else is getting cooked. Every year for the last 15 years or more has been the hottest year ever. Death Valley recorded 130 deg. yesterday, thought to be the hottest temp on earth since recorded weather.
