Sets my teeth on edge listening to this guy's pronunciation of Kenai.

We lived in Alaska for a few years when I had a government contract up there. We can not wait to go back.

Born and raised in Valdez for 8 years and honestly gotta say I’d move back there any day it’s like heaven compare to where I am now

Grew up in Cordova. Would not recommend unless you have a government job there lined up ahead of time, and if that's your plan, eff you. The town has consistently shut its doors to every industry that's tried to get established there besides commercial fishing. One big problem with that is so much of Cordova's economy is dependent on both abundance of salmon (which is generally pretty good), and the price it brings at market (which fluctuates a lot and lately has been in the toilet). What is a good year for fishermen, is also not necessarily a good year for many other local businesses or the people they employ. One reason for the supposed low unemployment mentioned, is that due to the high cost of living there, Cordova is a horrible place to be unemployed, so a lot of people who find themselves out of work there, rather than hanging on until they find another job, will leave for work elsewhere. The number is misleading due to the unemployed leaving because it is too expensive to stay. Finally, Cordova didn't suffer environmental damage due to the oil spill, which was completely on the other side of the sound. The herring fishery in the sound was wiped out and has never recovered. Fishermen who were involved in that fishery suffered some losses and that part of the fishing economy probably won't be back for the forseeable future, if ever.

Lived in Alaska a total of 6 years. Kenai is pronounced Keyni and Valdez is pronounced Valdeez. Thank you.

No houses available in Cordova. Just checked.

You should add the cost-of-living not just a price the average home and income. For example the cost of groceries in Cordova in valdese is extremely high

I e never been but I’ve heard North Pole has a horrible Meth problem and a really bad theft and sexual assault problem. I’ve heard some bad things about North Pole.

Where did you do your homework?

Both North Pole and Juneau have really bad crime.

Is Alaska easy to find a job?

Homer would not be on my list.

Best place to leave it is Florida Sarasota

Flourishing fishing aka murdering animals and the ocean 👎
