At Christmastime, real estate brokers and investors alike turn their thoughts to the North Pole.

Sure, it’s cold there, really cold and full of snow, but Amazon does deliver, we think.

Santa, however, does not live in this North Pole. In fact, this North Pole is in Alaska, and is about 1,000 miles south of the actual North Pole, which is somewhere in the Arctic Ocean.

But all the same, this North Pole, just outside of Fairbanks and with a population of over 2,000, possesses the world’s largest fiberglass statue of the jolly man himself.

It also has more than 370 homes on the market — all for under $500,000 — including one that can be rented through Airbnb.

There is only a 20 percent chance of snow on Christmas Day, and the temperature is expected to hover at around -12 degrees.
