I believe you are going to add more. Here are a few things I learnt after listening to a wealthy person looking for a place in India to build massive research, retreat kinda home, for his family, and the people who pop in to live their work.

The temperature range is one of the many factors. Even in a hotter area (from statistics), you can create a pleasant environment around the year if you have enough space and strategically plant trees and other greens, without any artificial air conditioning.

Soil: Look for soil quality and their changes over time and thus the likelihood of future quality.

Water: This is one of the most important ones. I believe you want to live/retire in the outskirts, grow your food, etc. Water plays a crucial role in what you want to do and what life you will have.

Calamities: History of natural calamities.

The others will be crime rates, political unrests, and accessibility, depending on how far you want to stay away from the crowd.

Nonetheless, your app is super cool and has given me ideas. Start with all the software possible and commission a small research team to pinpoint a few locations and zero in your final choices. ;-)
