Thank you for the info. Does the school have any sports teams? I ask because I worked in schools for 38 years, a small rural school for most of it, and am kind of looking for a new place to help out developing or helping with whatever is already there, sports etc. I also ref a few sports so could do that in Anchorage and area. Thanks.

Or it could be like a light system but they just don’t want it open at night because maybe there are accidents I’m not sure.

How is it dystopian? its the opposite. That's the wrong word to describe this. Most of the lower 48 cities are dystopian hellholes like Detroit, NYC, Austin and San Jose. I think the word you're trying to use is arcology. Whittier represents how a proto-arcological building functions in rural Alaska. Its amazing. You have the entire population under one roof and they manage to still cooperate and function as a micro society. The ladder part of your comment is not far off, these buildings were designed for the military during the cold war, hence its construction during the 1950s.

A lot of the "unusual" things mentioned in the video are totally normal for Russians . 1) In cities and towns, most people live in flats, which are typically smaller than an average North American home. 2) Schools are usually within walking distance. Some students (or their parents) opt for a non-local school because of better educational opportunities, but generally, it takes 5-15min to get to your school. 3) Since schools are so densely located, teachers often live not far from their workplace, therefore often bumping into their students in public places. 4) Primary school lasts for 4 years, and the same teacher teaches the same group of children maths, Russian, literature and science throughout that period. Sometimes other subjects, too, depending on the school. Most of the time, if you stay at the same school, you will have the same classmates for 11 years, and see a lot of the same teachers for years. With some fluctuations, of course. 5) A lot of Russians value a close-knit community. We typically have at least a nodding acquaintance with the people in nearby flats. A lot of neighbours become friends, babysit each other's children, have emergency keys to their neighbours' flats, celebrate the New Year together and things like that. It's fine to drop by for a talk. However, the intimacy levels vary. Privacy, boundaries are becoming more and more important to the younger generations.

Probably a few reasons, but one issue is it's a one way tunnel, so it opens from one side on the hour and the other side on the half hour (IIRC), and there are personnel associated with that. In addition there is a train track OVERLAYING the road, so trains use the road at the same time on the same very road (I believe this may be the only of its type in the world). More than likely this could be left to machines to handle but it's probably an issue of security as well, cost, and lack of demand. If anything happened in the tunnel it would both not be known for hours, but also shut an entire town down.

10 years ago I was on a contract on a cruise ship. Every week we had an overnight in Whittier... This building was fascinating me everytime... somehow... Now the story is complete... Thanks and all the best!!! ;)

For some reason I think that I would love this.

this seems like a modern village, everyone lives close together so there's a strong community

Teachers are always the catalyst in the society.

A teacher, bears the greatest responsibility and wisdom.

I have lived in AK for 2 years, absolutely loved it. They don't get many people there, but every one I met was extremely friendly and kind. If I would move to the US again, AK is possibly the only state I would go.

What a pleasant and thoughtful young woman - gave a very balanced viewpoint both negative and positive about the location. I could identify with this because as a child I lived for a time in the Orkneys and there were similarities.

Whittier, CA is basically a mini Los Angeles: most buildings are one story tall, you have to drive to get anywhere, and it's swallowed up in the great urban sprawl of the greater Los Angeles area. Not to mention we never, ever get snow.

I went on a kayaking trip that started in Whittier and the guide had grown up there and graduated from the school. He was the only one in his graduating class.

This was very interesting... I would love to visit one day!

I experienced communal living many years ago, and it was a living hell. Not only did I have to eat all my meals at a table with asshole jocks from school, I was also forced into doing chores, and participating in social activities with those cretins. I still have nightmares about those times. Thankfully, my mother came to her senses, and we now live alone in privacy. With no more of those silly distractions, and on demand Doritos, and Code Red, nothing comes between me and my $3000 gaming PC any more.

Zoopy Joobles has a 3" Dick WcjugmRc Nope they'll let others use force on their behalf. They buy governments and parties so that they do their bidding. Aside from that, try the don't buy it mentality with a bank.........especially know that the US and quite a few other countries are trillions "in debt". Which is a well thought out system to keep governments and countries at their mercy. Why are companies not officially using force, because right now they can't risk it, If they could get away with it, they would, it's not something moral that holds the worst of the lot at bay, but the constraints of what they can get away with. And yes generally the most powerful companies are the worst of the lot. ***** Agreed. The sad part is that most US Citizens cry communist a lot, without actually knowing what it means. And they seem to favour binary thinking a lot.

Living here is my dream! Don't be surprised if I move in soon.

Alaska would love to have you!

Wow! That sounds amazing! I would like to try live there for a while!!!

What a awesome young woman!!!!!!!!! Bless you dear!!!!!!!

So I think hey, this would be kind of cool. Then, I think of the movie "30 Days of Night" and I'm like ummm, probably not.

I'm pretty sure there's a Wal Mart in that building.

What a genuinely nice person.

You all livin in the same building. That's so cool!

While the lazy girl in me would find this a paradise (I hate driving lol) living here would make my social anxiety rise through the roof because it seems everyone would know your business and I like to be alone at least once a week lol. I would like to visit Alaska. I have a friend who travels a lot for work so she lived in Anchorage for like a year and she loved it. She was upset when her job made her move to Minneapolis lol.

This seems very strange to me - The building could be in the Bronx and looks like a prison - I understand that it is a community but for a foreigner like me it seems very cold 🧐 but it works for all the residents and that’s important

the best set up for a community, i wish i could live there!

Hello I am from Taiwan and I see it’s interesting of living under a same roof. Such a seamless community and people looking after each other supporting each other. Will go once I have a chance.

it's like fallout shelter

I think this is just so cool

I would like to visit one day, Alaska, and a city like Whittier sounds fun and cold.
