The ASHRAE 55-2004 standard says 80 F at 55% would be comfortable.

I can tell you from experience the past two weeks, that 80 degrees F
at 55%-60% humidity feels much better than 76 degrees at 80% humidity

We've been having some rather warm temps (upstate NY) and walking into
the house from outside it's incredible the difference the humidity
makes. I never ran AC in the whole house before and was amazed at the
difference it makes.
