I was born in Anchorage at the old Hospital in 1980. I came here to enjoy the video because I haven't been home since 1995. The memory over-load was welcome. Thanks for this.

My family lived in Anchorage in 1962 when I was 11 and I don't recognize anything, which can be expected. I find this video of Anchorage fascinating 59 years after I lived here.

@marcoschance9854 It was a white man's world, my father's WWII generation, the Madmen TV series generation. It has improved significantly when I revisited Alaska last year. It is no longer my father's Alaska, which is a good thing. The Native Alaskans suffered greatly from Tuberculosis back then. I did see the famous Native Alaskan George Attla race in the Fur Rendezvous as a kid in 1962. I am very impressed that Anchorage still has a lot of open space for wildlife. When we lived in the Turnagain area, moose would run through our backyard. I was very pleased that a Native Alaskan woman was elected as Alaska's U.S. Representative. I donated several hundred of my father's, Harold Obert, slides to the University of Alaska-Anchorage library. He took photos of Valdez in 1962, which was destroyed in the 1964 earthquake by a tsunami.

As someone who was born there and raised there and still live there it’s a very very beautiful place that nature is nice the city is good it’s just a good place to be despite the cold Alaska is one of the best places you could ever go to

Alaska should be protected forever

I was in Anchorage last week. Much warmer and friendly than I expected. The helicopter tour woed me, especially the mighty mighty glaciers. I had salmon strips that tasted nice and I wish to visit again to expwrience the mid night sun.

I'm a relative of Jay Livengood who founded Livengood mines in Livengood Alaska. No Livengoods have any holdings in the mine anymore, but it's still a cool thing for us to go to Livengood Alaska, like a pilgrimage. Hoping to make a trip there. It's a tiney town, but I'd still like to go, just to se where the great grandad was.

I watch videos on Anchorage because I miss my home town. Grew up there.

Anchorage seems to be comparable to another Amarillo, Santa Cruz, Modesto, San Jose, and other independent, standalone American cities of under 500K population. Anchorage has the exact opposite issue to that of Phoenix, Arizona. Both have something of a, "Come stay for a while and see if you like it." attraction. People emigrate to Phoenix, Arizona and leave after a year or so, chased out by the unrelenting, blazing heat. People emigrate to Anchorage and leave after a year or so, chased out by the unrelenting, Arctic cold and snow.

@@TheOfficialStaxx That's incorrect on both counts. 1) President McKinley never visited Alaska. 2) He had no ties to Alaska, Denali, or its americanized branding of "Mt. McKinley". How it got the "Mt. McKinley" name is a crazy story of its own; completely done out of political, greedy, spite by a goldminer who had no ties to McKinley who had just been become the Republican Presidential nominee. After he was assassinated in office, the name became official to commemorate his memory. Again, crazy story, but other than being murdered - President McKinley had nothing to do with naming the mountain he never saw in the state he never visited.

Alaska and California were invaluable to the United States for their gold mining production. Gold from California helped the Union finance the Civil War. The federal government was quick to push California quickly into statehood with only just above a population of 60,000. Alaskan gold helped finance America's participation in WW1 and WW2.

@@unknownsaiyan2.027 well if you want to move to Alaska you better be prepared for the winter season cause it's a long one. I say winter but the cold lasts for months. Also since the sun is usually blocked by the the constant winter clouds you will become depressed due to lack of vitamin d which comes from the sun. A lot of suicide and murder takes place around early October though till at least April. Dating can be different for everyone so I'm not one to give such advice. As dating life goes, it all depends on you and what you want. Summertime Alaska is the best time because people from across the world come to experience the Alaskan journey. you get people from the Balkans, Japan, Korea, India, Africa, Brazil, the lower 48s, Russia, etc. Alaska is the most diverse state in the country so that should tell you how intriguing it actually is. A lot of people on the street will act friendly but you can't trust everything you see. Stay on guard at all costs.

Employment there is actually needed. Winter time is coming and a lot of students from other places left so a lot of jobs are hiring but be wary you will need 2 jobs if you want to survive. I got lucky, having two jobs on different pay periods I get paid every week. It's best to find jobs with different pay weeks cause constant money is better than bi weekly.
