What would be a benefit of living within the Arctic Circle?

Answer 1

Compared to living in the "lower 48" states of the US, some advantages are:

-- Over the course of a year, you don't have to mow your lawn as many times.

-- 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.

-- Personally, while I worked on Alaska's North Slope, I found that during a large part

of the year, I didn't have to shower or change my shirt quite as often, though I can

accept that others with whom I worked may have disagreed.
