Mexico City or Miami?
2,051 km apart, in Mexico and United States. Each is scored month by month on the same ten years of climate readings, the public holidays that crowd it, and what the flight costs. This is where they part, and when.
Month by month
| Month | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mexico City | 23° 1d | 25° 1d | 27° 2d | 28° 6d | 28° 9d | 25° 18d | 23° 23d | 23° 24d | 23° 22d | 23° 11d | 23° 3d | 22° 1d |
| Miami | 24° 7d | 26° 6d | 27° 6d | 28° 9d | 30° 15d | 30° 21d | 31° 22d | 31° 23d | 31° 21d | 29° 15d | 27° 8d | 25° 7d |
| Pick | Mexico City | Mexico City | either | Mexico City | Mexico City | neither | neither | neither | neither | Mexico City | Mexico City | Mexico City |
Each cell is that destination's own verdict for the month — sweet spot, ok or avoid — with its typical daily high and its rainy days ("11d"). The pick goes to the better verdict; with the same verdict, to the higher score, unless the two are within a whisker of each other, when it is either. A month both would avoid is neither. A dot marks a busy month.

Between them
2,051 km as the crow flies, about 3h 25m in the air.
The flight time is estimated from the distance. A road, train or bus is named only where it was measured — flights from AeroDataBox, roads from OpenRouteService, timetables via Transitous — and none of it is a fare; the searches on each destination's page are where prices live.
