As the driest place in the USA, this place is actually inhabited even though less than a thousand people live there.

Kebili, Tunisia

Tunisia’s close location to the Mediterranean Sea suggests that it should be nice and cool but Kebili is a desert town which has the highest temperature recorded at 55℃.
