    seasonal affective depression… if you are going to move somewhere remote, move into a desert or rainforest (i.e. near the equator), not places like Canada, Alaska, Siberia, or indeed Greenland

          seasonal affective depression

          I’m just saying that not everyone is affected by it. I’d say most people are just fine. For example, in Finland that rate is 10–30% who get some symptoms without the depression. For the SAD overall, I found this

          In Greenland, the northernmost territory of North America, the frequency of SAD has been found to vary from 6.9 to 11.5%, and highest in northern municipalities

          So you could move to Greenland and be totally fine. Though I guess where you are coming from can affect it.
