Anchorage is as close as you can get to Alaska without actually being in Alaska. Seriously though, If you are going to be here for 3-4 years plan on exploring the areas outside of Anchorage. Lots of good cross country skiing, fat tire biking, etc in Anc, Lots of petty crime so make sure you don't keep valuables in your car. I would also look into getting a Garmin Inreach for the family. It was one of the first purchases I made after arriving.
If you have the option to take the ferry from Washington do it. Studded tires are a good idea as well.
Congrats on the move. I spent my first winter in Anch while waiting on the spring when I could actually have my items moved. I spent most of my time around the Eagle River Nature Center and down around Girdwood. Does your wife work? Looking for a job?
