Anchorage is a pretty nice place to live. It's quiet, but at the same time, there's stuff to do and it never gets THAT boring. If you love the outdoors, you're going to love the whole year. Short summers, but nice, green summers and usually a somewhat long winter. AC is pretty scarce in the area. Typically hits 70 on sunny summer days (80s this summer, and 90s expected this week), and 20s for winter highs. The city is doing nothing but growing too, compared to in 2009 when I moved here.

Depending on what time you arrive in Anchorage, there's some fun stuff to do. The state fair is held in Palmer (a city 40 miles north) every August (late August-early September), you can view the northern lights pretty well on the northern sides of town with little light (fall, spring). Fur Rondy is a festival around the traditions of Anchorage that happens every late February. Gas in the city is about $3.90/gal. Anchorage (the city, at least), is about 12 by 12 miles, not including north of AFB

Let's say the cost of living index of the US is 100, Anchorage would be about 135. Fruits/vegetables in Anchorage are usually more aged because of shipping time, and they're usually $.60-$1.00 more per pound. Clothing is about the same costs as the lower-48. Gas is around L.A. prices. One could live in Anchorage pretty well off a $40,000 salary, along with the $1,000-$2,000 PFD checks after you've been here longer than a calendar year and are a resident.

I was told you'd go crazy if you never left the Anchorage bowl. Really, it isn't all that bad to just not leave Anchorage other than once a year. The city has really grown in the 3 years I've lived here, there's lots to do recreationally, as there's pretty much parks/wilderness all around the city (within 10 miles), and there's plenty of stores and other places to visit, just a normal city life with lots more sights, wilderness, and wildlife.

First off, I see "(1/2)" but I never found "(2/2)'. Second, nice to see that you actually ventured beyond downtown, unlike many other videos on here. Now, for what has changed along 5th Avenue since this video was shot: 3:58 The two-story building behind the gas station, 619 E. 5th, has since been torn down. The lot is sitting vacant. As downtown is full of vacant lots and for sale or for lease signs, that isn't likely to change anytime soon. 4:30 The "Visitor Information" place is gone (the building is still standing but vacant) and I'm pretty sure the cache alongside it is also no longer there. 4:38 The Black Market is out of business. That place was an institution; it had been there since at least the 1970s or 1980s. I believe they got into trouble or actually shut down for selling "drug paraphernalia". 4:42 The Days Inn hasn't been the Days Inn for quite a while, though they're still in business as a hotel. 4:53 Florcraft moved out to Dimond Boulevard around the beginning of this year. 5:22 The building at the northwest corner of 5th and C, formerly a bank building back in the days when we had a multiplicity of local financial institutions, is now the Anchorage outlet of The North Face. 5:27 The Fur Alaska building has also been torn down. Actually, what you see from the street was a false front. The building itself was actually an old wood frame house and two corrugated metal warehouse-type structures connected together, and possibly dated to the first half-dozen years or so of Anchorage's existence (so it's quite possible that it was demolished because it was deemed out of compliance with building codes). There's been an attempt to develop an outdoor market on the lot. 5:31 The tent/canopy on the corner of 5th and D was the seating area for a salmon bake restaurant, owned and operated by relatives of long-ago fleeting "celebrity" Mary Kay Letourneau. A bar formerly sat on that corner, which burned down in 1970 and the lot was never rebuilt. The adjacent restaurant building on D Street was torn down and the lot is now used for parking. 5:48 The high-rise across from the skywalk, 601 W. 5th, was damaged enough in the earthquake last year to where there's been talk of tearing it down. 6:12 Holy Family Parish expanded its physical plant recently, though what was replaced is not visible in this view. The building at 5th and I that can be seen is their education center. It was formerly McMahan's Department Store, a business which began in Anchorage's earliest years and went out of business during the 1980s real estate crash. 6:23 J. C. Morris Insurance is another old, old Anchorage business that seems to have disappeared. (Actually, I take that back. Google says they moved to Midtown. They were on 5th Avenue for somewhere in the neighborhood of 70 years.)

Forget Anchorage, unless you like the city; Eagle River is much better and it's not as yuppie as many people think. I came here 5 years ago with the Air Force and retired here. I generally don't think the city is very 18-25 year old-friendly as many of the young military just stay in their dorms. As for weather, I think it's broken 80 degrees maybe 2 days out of my time here, but it feels hotter, since air conditioning in almost nonexistent

It gets about 4-6 hours sunlight in winter. Tourism is mostly dead in winter and the uphill and downhill roads are bad news for all drivers. Highways are straight up dangerous in winter especially when it's unpredictable because its either you crashing or someone crashing onto you. Anchorage in summer isn't too bad but once you done half of the city got to offer it gets boring.
