From when I was 12 to 18 years old my family lived in the desert, where during the summer it reached 110f (43c) to 120f (49c) every day.
We thought nothing of it, riding bicycles around etc. It wasn't like we hunkered down in Air Conditioning all day.
Our car had what we called 4-60 Air Conditioning: roll down all 4 windows and go 60 miles an hour.
But the humidity was extremely low, below 10% which helped make the heat bearable.
