It's not USB-based like you asked for, but I wanted a temperature and humidity sensor I could place anywhere in the house and which could be read by my computer. My solution was to buy a Raspebrry Pi 3 Model B+ and a humidity sensor that plugs into its IO pins. That's ~$40 total cost. Now I have a little computer that reads the temp and humidity anywhere I put it (it communicates via my wifi) and makes those readings available through a web service on my home network that any other computer can query. I could provide more details if this interests you (outside the list, as this would be way off-topic for this list.) It's pretty simple to do, simpler than the web tutorials I found make it out to be. They're all pretty out-of-date when it comes to the software setup involved. That's gotten dead simple now.
