Much of the Arctic is actually over the Arctic Ocean, which means there is no soil in those areas to grow anything - thus presenting the threat of lack of food.

Even in Arctic areas that have soil, most of it is covered with snow and ice a great part of the year - thus preventing growing any crops there.

The low temperatures experienced most of the year in most parts of the Arctic are a threat.

Because few people live there, predators that inhabit the Arctic are less inclined to avoid humans - meaning they are more likely to attack humans making homes there.
