These are climatological means, not a weather forecast — check a live forecast before travelling. Source: Open-Meteo Historical Weather API (CC BY 4.0, 2015–2024). Grouped by continent, ordered by temperature within each group — a filter tool, not a ranking or liveability judgement.

FAQ

How is “mild in May” defined?

May has a monthly mean temperature between 15 and 26 °C. Data are 2015–2024 monthly means (Open-Meteo Historical, CC BY 4.0), aggregated per city.

Is this a liveability ranking?

No. This page groups cities by continent and orders them within each group by that month's temperature ascending; the temperature value carries no good/bad judgement. The sample is only our cities with data for that month.
