I live in Wasilla, but I’ve been retired for nine years now, so I really don’t pay much attention to the labor market.
Personally, I think southeast Alaska would be more to your liking. It’s much closer in topography to Washington than the rest of Alaska is. Palmer and Wasilla are just a suburb of Anchorage and I’d love to move somewhere else in Alaska that’s not so crowded.
Thank you, that is very welcomed advice and input.
