I was worried about the cost, but compared to NY it is pretty much the same food prices, which makes me feel better about retiring there.
Yep, it isn't as bad as rumors say!
Lots to learn about the biggest city in Alaska! What more would you like to know about living in Anchorage, Alaska?
My husband was an airman in USAF in 1973. We had our daughter at Elmendorf. What I remember was being hungry and not having enough money to live on. It was a very rough place to live for young military families. Our very first apartment was Richardson Vista Apartments. I remember the biggest cockroaches I had ever seen lived in the basement of that apartment. We did not get out much to see the sights. We were living on a shoestring payday to payday. I had my 20th birthday there. I hope things are better now for young military families. We are coming back to Anchorage next summer with our daughter so she can see where she was born.
That's terrible! Those roaches must transfered in cause they freeze here now! I think the military has been taking much better care of folks now. Let me know when you all are in town and we'll meet up for coffee!
If you reside on Base, you will be fine. Best to stay on the military reserve.
i live in Anc, never had a single roach...
"Living" in Anchorage or Alaska entails dealing with a lot of alcoholic reactionary misfits who scream about the federal government while sucking at its teat more than any other state in the union. The four years I spent there reminded me of Oscar Wilde's poem of his incarceration in Reading Gaol: "Every day was like a year--a year whose days were long!"
Thanks for posting and adding your experience. Can't say that it doesn't happen but in my years here, that is fairly rare occurrence and no different than my years living in Hotlanta.
@@KenHagler Hey Ken: Thank you for being so pleasant and conciliatory regarding my less-than-complimentary comments! My father was in the AF and we drove all the way across the continent from Portsmouth, NH, to Anchorage in our '61 Rambler American station wagon back in '67 after my father was transferred to Elmendorf. I spent three years there and the lack of light and the incessant icy mist that enveloped Anchorage throughout the winter months (not to mention the mosquitoes, midges, gnats, and no-see-ums) just wasn't my cup of meat! Instead of graduating from East in '71 as was my assumed destiny, I hitchhiked down the Alcan when I was 17, and kept going back and forth across the States until I turned 18 and enlisted in the army. Would you believe that when I had a chance to get a three month "early out" for a college admission, the ONLY school that started late enough for me to get out in time was UAA! So for another year I endured what I'd already come to loathe and at the end of my freshman year, I transferred to the University of Colorado at CS (where today I see there has been a shooting!) where I ended up using the GI Bill to get a completely worthless degree in Victorian Literature! My remaining family all live in Anchorage and I'd mention my father's name, but the real estate agency he owned (with backing from Ron Hayes, whom you may have heard of) specialized in bilking people of their property so I'm going to maintain radio silence on that one since he may very well be as infamous in Anchorage as my sisters would have me believe. Oh, I now live in the mountains in NC and have been to Atlanta enough times to never want to return there either!
@ailurophile17 The world gets smaller all the time! I went to ECU and the mountains of NC have always been an escape for our family! Thanks for sharing some of your story and I can surely respect the need for that radio silence
@@KenHagler Smaller than that! I teach at ASU!
@@ailurophile17 and my dad retired as faculty at ECU! LOL!!
Awesome Video Ken !!
Thanks! Just wondering, what jumped out at you?
A L A S K A N L I V I N ‘ ! Yeeeeeehaw
I visited last year and have always wanted to move there. However it is way to far away from family in minnesota.
Totally understand! I do miss my family back down south
Thank you for taking the time to do this videos, high quality content right here.
I have been thinking moving from TX to AK and still doing some due diligence.
Gonna keep watching your vids for a while till I make a decision!
Here goes a question, does knowing spanish is a gamechanger or just a good perk to have over there?
I'm really glad this was helpful!
Great question! Anchorage is a true melting pot. Is it a game changer? I think it is becoming more so as our Hispanic community continues to grow.
@@KenHagler Thank you so much for taking of your time to answer. if you would be so kind to indulge me in another question I just happen to have. Is viable to have an electric/hybrid car over there?
You all need some sun badly
Not too many Spanish speaking natives in alaska
I am going to move to Anchorage from the Caribbean for work in Feb 24 any advice for a couple re best places to live - more modern home with easy access to midtown. Maybe where other expats live with homes that rent for 3k to 4k?
I don't work with the rental market. As for employment, you can try these sites: www.AlaskaPipelineJobInfo.com

@@KenHagler okay thanks a lot!
Thank you
You are most welcome! Just curious what you found most helpful?
What is the average cost for property taxes?
The average property tax rate in Anchorage is 1.41% 1. The median property tax in Anchorage Municipality is $3,563 per year for a home worth the median value of $269,5004. Anchorage Municipality collects the highest property tax in Alaska, levying an average of $3,563.00 (1.32% of median home value) yearly in property taxes5. The effective annual property tax rate in Alaska is 0.98%, which is the 21st highest among states. Lot of jargon but hope that helps! And yes, there are homes between 200k-300k here!
@@KenHagler thanks for answering my question. You explained this very well.
To expensive
You totally blew past Russian Jack where I lived.
I will be going back for details on areas. I wanted to give a broad view.
So
I am curious about business properties. What are the median and average monthly rates for commercial spaces. Entertainment: Clubs, theatre, film, live music.
Are you talking about property tax rates or monthly rent?
@@KenHagler Both or the monthly total including those, on average.
Damn expensive even in Alaska
Everything keeps hitting us doesnt it?!
Everything expensive in the united states
Show the real city bro than some website ratings.
Thanks for the advice. Getting there! I'm a Realtor and these are things of interest to many folks. More content on the city to come!
I lived up there in the 70s, it was awesome, wouldn't live there now for anything. Total ghetto, full of crime and lowlifes compared to how it use to be.
Thanks for stopping in and commenting!
not 1 actual pic of Anc.. 👎
looking at a map would have done the same
Thanks your opinion
