Just curious

Why would you, or anyone else WANT to live by the North Pole?
It’s actually nice here, it usually only February and March that are really cold. Once it’s below about -25 it pretty much feels the same until about minus forty. At forty things get real bad, but we don’t get many days like that anymore.
Summers are amazing, dry, warm, and light around the clock. Pretty much from April until mid October is short sleeve weather.
There’s nobody here. I mean it’s freakin empty. The whole territory is massive, with a population of forty thousand. We drove to the capital city last week and it was more then a half hour between vehicles. In a five hour drive we saw perhaps ten vehicles on the main highway.
There’s lots of money here if you want to work. If you have a trade you can pretty much print your own money. It’s an expensive place to live but still the wages make up for it.
The people are just different here. That’s not necessarily a good thing for everyone, but we generally put up with less dumb ****. I saw on the U.S. news a while ago they were at a rally and interviewed a guy in the crowd. He had a big beard with freakin bows woven into it and was all puffed up. It would take about a half hour here and you would find the bows and possibly some teeth in the parking lot.
Just surviving here makes you proud.
And nice people. We take care of our own, regardless of race, creed, or nationality. The white power people would never make it back out of here alive because most aren’t white here. In some communities none are. Not one.
The generosity is astonishing if there’s a fire, sickness or accident.
I travel a good part of the world; some of Europe, some of the ‘states, Mexico and Canada. Could live pretty much anywhere we like at this point but we like it here. Mexico is a close second.
