Question: The 21st President of the United States spent how many years of his life in Fairfield?
Context: Chester Alan Arthur (October 5, 1829 – November 18, 1886) was an American attorney and politician who served as the 21st President of the United States (1881–85); he succeeded James A. Garfield upon the latter's assassination.  At the outset, Arthur struggled to overcome a slightly negative reputation, which stemmed from his early career in politics as part of New York's Republican political machine.  He succeeded by embracing the cause of civil service reform.  His advocacy for, and subsequent enforcement of, the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act was the centerpiece of his administration. The American Revolutionary War inflicted great financial costs on all of the combatants, including the United States of America, France, Spain and Great Britain.  France and Great Britain spent 1.3 billion "livres" and 250 million pounds, respectively.  The United States spent $400 million in wages for its troops.  Spain increased its military spending from 454 million "reales" in 1778 to over 700 million "reales" in 1779. The military–industrial complex (MIC) is an informal alliance between a nation's military and the arms industry which supplies it, seen together as a vested interest which influences public policy.  A driving factor behind this relationship between the government and defense-minded corporations is that both sides benefit—one side from obtaining war weapons, and the other from being paid to supply them.  The term is most often used in reference to the system behind the military of the United States, where it is most prevalent and gained popularity after its use in the farewell address of President Dwight D. Eisenhower on January 17, 1961.  In 2011, the United States spent more (in absolute numbers) on its military than the next 13 nations combined. Health care in the United States is provided by many distinct organizations.  Health care facilities are largely owned and operated by private sector businesses.  58% of US community hospitals are non-profit, 21% are government owned, and 21% are for-profit.  According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States spent more on health care per capita ($8,608), and more on health care as percentage of its GDP (17%), than any other nation in 2011.

Bush was inaugurated as 41st President of the United States, and ended on January 20, 1993.  Bush, a Republican, took office after a landslide victory over Democrat nominee Michael Dukakis in the 1988 presidential election.  He was the first sitting vice president to be elected president since Martin Van Buren in 1836.  Later, Bush, the 41st president, and his oldest son, George W. Bush, the country's 43rd (2001–2009), would become only the second father and son pair to become president.  (John Adams and John Quincy Adams were the first.)  Bush was denied a second term in the 1992 presidential election, which was won by Democrat Bill Clinton. Fairfield is a town in Franklin County, Vermont, United States.  The population was 1,891 at the 2010 census.  President Chester A. Arthur was born in Fairfield in 1829, and lived there for the first three years of his life.  The Chester Alan Arthur State Historic Site is open seasonally. The Chester A. Arthur Home was the residence of the 21st President of the United States, Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886), both before and after his four years in Washington D.C. while serving as Vice President and then as President.  Located at 123 Lexington Avenue in New York City, Arthur spent most of his adult life living in the residence.  While Vice President, Arthur retreated to this house after the July 2, 1881 shooting of President James Garfield.  Arthur was in residence here when Garfield died on September 19, and took the presidential oath of office in this building.  A commemorative bronze plaque was placed inside the building in 1964 by the Native New Yorkers Historical Society and New York Life Insurance, and the house was designated a National Historic Landmark on January 12, 1965. The Wilson Building, also known as the Wilson Block, is a historic building located in Fairfield, Iowa, United States.  The two-story Italianate commercial building was built in 1876 by James F. Wilson as an investment property.  In 1865 Wilson helped establish and served as president of the First National Bank in Fairfield, and in 1870 he and R. H. Hufford, C. W. Slagle, and George Acheson, organized the Jefferson County Coal Company.  Wilson had been a three-term Republican Congressman representing Iowa's 1st congressional district.  Seven years after this building was constructed he began the first of two terms in the United States Senate.  He had a Senate office in this building from 1883 to 1895.  The historic significance of this building reflects the importance of Wilson's contributions to the economic life of Fairfield, and his political career.  The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. The President Chester A. Arthur State Historic Site is a state historic site located in Fairfield, Vermont.
