What would be a benefit of living within the Arctic Circle?
Compared to living in the "lower 48" states of the US, some advantages are:

-- For most of the year, you get along with a lot less air conditioning and sun-screen.
-- If you are in the habit of eating regularly, then the problem of relieving the pressure
of excess cash in your pocket completely disappears.
-- If your next-door neighbors throw a party on Friday night, it doesn't bother you,
because they don't live as close.
-- For most of the year, you don't have to worry about where you left your sunglasses.
