How I quoted you doesn't change anything. Not all AK communities are native. Sure some are harder to manage then others but that blanket statement is BS. But you are entitled to your own opinion.

To the OP If your wife is a teacher she shouldn't have a hard time at all finding a Job in SE Alaska. The pay is good for the area. If you want to find a 9 to 5 job then you better stick to the cities. If you really want to live in Alaska it is very easily doable. Hunting and fishing in SE AK is great. Plenty of deer, black bear, brown bear, goats, and small game. All the fresh and saltwater fishing you want. Depending on the area trapping is anywhere from good to great. In my opinion a boat is mandatory at a minimum a 18' to 20' skiff.


Eat Fish, Wear Grundens, Drink Alaskan.
