I've been living here since 1996 and love it. It is a great place to live if you are able to entertain yourself.
I especially like the outdoors and a private life here. Fairbanks is quite diverse for its size and you can be whoever you want to be.
Its always interesting to watch the people at an event where you'll see people in everything from evening gowns to carharts and bunny boots.
The University adds much to the community. There are lots of local musicians.
If you need a nightlife and shopping, you're in the wrong place.
