Review of Anchorage, Alaska


Last Frontier
Star Rating - 12/18/2008
Anchorage has a lot of great features - proximity to wilderness and natural beauty is the greatest. The climate is cold in the winter but dry. The town has most conveniences as a city in the lower 48. Plus the economy here is still great - compared to the lower 48! The drawbacks is that crime is increasing and the drivers are too aggressive. I don't recommend that people moving here use a company called World Wide Movers, Inc. though. I had many items stolen and damaged by this company. Also plan on having all of your goods arrive frozen.
