Here’s what you should know if you’re thinking about moving to Fairbanks.
First of all, Fairbanks’s small town vibe is alive and well!
So if clubbing, bars and generally being on the scene are your thing, maybe this isn’t your place.
Fairbanks tends to cater to the outdoorsy crowd and by “cater” I mean that’s really all there is to do! 🤣
This is what you can expect a lot of:
✅ Hiking
✅ Camping
✅ Skiing
✅ Mountain biking
✅ Fishing
✅ Hunting
✅ Outdoor adventuring
So I repeat! This is NOT the place to come if you’re not into any of the above. 👆🏻
But…
Fairbanks IS a wonderful place to raise your family if you’re looking for:
✨ A community of like-minded people
✨ A place where your kids can ride their bikes down the dirt road and you feel like they’re safe
✨ It doesn’t take hours of driving to get out of the city and to your favorite hiking trail.
And I get it, moving is such a big decision especially when your family is involved!
There’s very little room for error.
So I’ve created something just for people like you!
