I live a few hundred miles just due south of Barrow, and I like this a lot. It’s a cool sounding name, keeping Inupiaq alive as a language, and after all, the folks up there have been sovereign much longer than the United States. And a community can call itself whatever the hell they want.

Barrow's population was 4,683 at the 2000 census and 4,212 at the 2010 census. In July 2013, the population estimate was 4,373.

So what are they after here? Oblivion?
