70 and off usually (Denver area). I'd go a little higher but house is 2-story and my wfh office room is the hottest in the house in the afternoon - it gets to about 72-73 which I can work in with ceiling fan on tolerably if barely. I hate hot more than cold unless actually freezing to death.
Edit: Oh and the thermostat is downstairs - no fancy dual-zone stuff or anything. So I have a whole system of which vents are open/closed winter/summer to try to keep upstairs/downstairs more even (I probably wouldn't get another 2-story house for this and other reasons e.g. no way I'm trying to paint the thing myself, which is kind of coming due). Summer I close most downstairs registers so as to both get more cool air upstairs, and not cool the thermostat like immediately - this makes a substantial difference, like a couple degrees delta up/down vs say 5-6 or so. The worst days for this are when it's just warm enough out to require the a/c for upstairs but the ground/first floor is cool enough that the a/c doesn't want to kick on - I'll force the issue with like 68 when the office gets insufferable.
Edit 2: I've had thoughts of could I install misters for the SW walls that get hot so's to evap cool them, because I'm weird like that. I wonder how well this work but the thing is water is not cheap either....
