temperate zone
The temperate zone is the area between the polar areas and the equator.
Temperate Rainforests grows closest to the arctic circle
Some major cities found in the temperate zone include New York City, London, Paris, Tokyo, and Sydney. These cities experience four distinct seasons with moderate temperatures and are located roughly between the Tropics and the Arctic Circle or Antarctic Circle.
Mid-latitudes
The band between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle is the North Temperate Zone. It is characterized on the whole by a temperate climate.

"High" latitudes. The equator has a latitude of zero. The area between the Tropic of Cancer (at 23.5 degrees north) and the Tropic of Capricorn (at 23.5 degrees south) are the "tropics" or low latitudes. The "polar regions" are above the Arctic Circle or below the Antarctic Circle, where the latitudes are higher than 66.5 degrees (north or south) are "high". The areas between the tropics and the arctic/antarctic are called "mid-latitudes or "temperate zones".
The globe is commonly divided from north to south into five zones between the North Pole and the South Pole. From the North Pole to the Arctic Circle is the arctic zone. From the Arctic Circle to the Tropic of Cancer is the temperate zone. From the South Pole to the Antarctic Circle is the antarctic zone. From the Antarctic Circle to the Tropic of Capricorn is also the temperate zone. In the middle, from the Tropic of Cancer to the Tropic of Capricorn (with the Equator in the middle) is the tropic zone, or the Tropics. Most of Africa lies in this part of the world.
The northern Temperate Zone lies between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle in the northern hemisphere, and in the southern hemisphere, between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle.
The area between the tropics and the polar circles is called the temperate zone. This region experiences four distinct seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—due to its moderate climate. The temperate zone is characterized by a variety of ecosystems and is home to many human populations and agricultural activities.
