I have seen only one Hispanic in the last 5 years, and he is just a fraction of that even.
Here in Wasilla Alaska its 98% white, and the rest is of a mix of native tribes.
It appears to be that we are indeed getting political refugees here, unfortunately we do not have the proper infrastructure for the flood of them, there are next to none in manufacturing jobs, no big warehouse plants for worker drones.
No massive apartment complexes, we have quite a few but the rent is outrageous.
Gas is the most expensive of all states, the food cost more, the overall cost of living is 2 or more times more expensive than the lower 48. And higher wage jobs much coveted and cherished by elitist liberals are only in Anchorage.
So if anyone is planning to flee to Alaska, go to Anchorage.
Powder..patch..ball FIRE...
Lol... keep them outside... More Alaska for the ones already there...
Don't bother going to your area/town! No jobs and everything is down right expensive.
So if anyone is planning to flee to Alaska, go to Anchorage.
Agreed!
When I lived in pre-pipeline Fairbanks, back in the early 70’s, we used to call Anchorage, where you went on vacation, or if we were feeling mean, fake Alaska. Winter, even before cost of living, should be the biggest concern for anyone moving to Alaska. You haven’t lived until you have survived eight months of WINTER. That is one reason Anchorage was called fake Alaska, Winter just wasn’t winter, compared to Fairbanks.
My nephew just moved to Wasilla in the last two weeks from Golden, Co.
He went there with a friend of the Palins to work and live.
He will be an asset to any community that he is in.
Thanks but no thanks...But I'll take a peak in my freezer to get that Alaskan feeling!
