Anchorage Overview

Stand up and walk out your front door. Go ahead. We’ll wait. Did you see any moose? Any black bears, grizzly bears, mountain goats or lynx? No? That’s because you don’t live in an apartment in Anchorage Alaska where mother nature is close enough to hit with a badly thrown rock. Anchorage has more going for it than nature (although some people won’t require any more). It has a good economy, ample job opportunities and recreation.

Why live in Anchorage, AK?

Apartment living in Anchorage is perfect for people who like an intimate social life with familiar people. The small town experience is at your finger tips. You can choose a favorite hangout and form sturdy friendships with the people you meet there. The outdoors is within walking distance of the front door of your apartment. Wildlife fills the forest, and you can enjoy it just by walking outside. Nightlife in Anchorage provides everything you could ever want. It ranges from Koots with men in plaid wool shirts and heavy shoes talking loudly about sports to Club Paris with low lighting, excellent food and an intimate ambiance. Anchorage has serious institutions like the Alaska Center for the Performing arts, the Anchorage Concert Association and the Sitka Summer Music Festival which presents more than 600 performances a year.
