The only reason I can make the argument that winter is slightly less annoying is because my bills aren't as high, heating the house is cheaper than cooling it.

Total opposite for me. I heat and cool exclusively with a heat pump. Can't get natural gas out in the country and I have no interest in buying propane in the middle of the winter for double the summer price. My heat pump is brand new and really efficient for AC. My bill barely goes up in the summer time. But in the winter, it spikes. That's because a heat pump uses heat strips when it gets below 32 degrees and they aren't efficient at all. My bill stays below $200 most of the year, but is often over $300 in the winter.
