Gateway CDP Near Fairbanks and Eielson
Gateway is a census-designated place in the Fairbanks North Star Borough with roughly 5,552 residents. The community sits between Fairbanks and Eielson Air Force Base along the Richardson Highway, functioning as a residential corridor for military families and civilian workers employed at the base or in Fairbanks proper. There is no municipal government, so the borough and state provide services.
Eielson Air Force Base, located just east of Gateway, is home to the 354th Fighter Wing and serves as a critical training facility for Arctic and cold-weather military operations. The base received a squadron of F-35A Lightning II jets in recent years, bringing new personnel and families to the surrounding communities. This influx has kept housing demand steady in Gateway even as other parts of interior Alaska have seen population declines.
