We have customers fly into our corporate headquarters from time to time (in helicopters). There's a large grassy area that has more than enough room/flat space to a safe landing.
What you do need to research is local and state ordinances (such as noise and aircraft operations within a city or municipal area).
Some states consider certain roads to be "free use" areas. I don't know if it's still the case, but in North Dakota, rural state roads were once free to use as runways as long as pilots exercised due caution, pre-surveyed their intended landing site (from the ground) and flew over prior to landing to ensure that there are no people/objects on the road. I believe the same is true of Alaska.
Bear in mind also that you will need permission (written is the best kind) from any private property owner. I would personally carry that permission along with me if I were to land off airport just in case you were to be questioned by any LEO's or FAA folk).
