Your asking the wrong crowd! You might try the FBI or Troopers or some other law agency. I don't think we have any psycologists visiting this board who might have a reasonable answer.

Sex offender who have moved over there, maybe because of how remote the place is?
Escaping from the laws on others states maybe?

We have laws here as well.
If you're a sex offender in some of the remote parts of the state, you'd better keep it very quiet. If you're registered, you'd better move.
I don't think there are any sex offenders in Trapper Creek, for instance, but I recall when one tried to move there last year. He ended up thinking better of that idea.

That buy far is the smallest ratio I have found after noticing this. The smallest ratio I found was 104-1 with the average around 350-1. I am curious because like I said I am moving up there next year. I appreciate any information. Thanks for your time and what you do." I will post anything that they Reply.

Ok Guys, here is a very interesting site that i have in my bookmarks.
Offender Locator - Login
It's to locate sex offender in your area. Give it a try and let me know.
An special alert was given for the city of Wasilla about a guy name:
ALBERT LEROY SOTERION
 190 PAULSON AVE #4, WASILLA
Since that's a public record, I don't think there is any problem with me posting the details in here. Once you are a registered sex offender you've lost your privacy.....SORRY!
Give it a try to the site, you may find someone you actually know!

Hi from Virginia. There are two mobile home and RV parks in North Pole, AK. It seems to be a lot for a town of its size. I suspect that the sex offender background limits the kind of jobs and pay these people can attain, and as a result they have to settle for lowest cost accomodations possible. When the online mapping became available in Virginia, I was surprised at how many of them seemed to be clustered downtown in and around the trailer park in downtown Richmond.

Graphic rep of North Pole AK and area.
Maybe this will help people understand the North Pole area.
see attatched.
The city of North Pole is inside the small dotted black line near the bottom of the screen. The property concentrations in the arc above is Badger Road. At least half of badger road is called North Pole but doesn't come up on the population count, but may have a 99705 zip that does show up on the register. The squares are one square mile.
Fairbanks City limits Start on the left side of the screen.
Below is the source link. Lots of information here once you learn to use the tools.

I have not been able to find a zip code map for comparison.

All I know is last month I road tripped through North Pole (yes we stopped at santa's house) and it was very nice looking from what I saw. New road work being done in the town (with a roundabout of all things, like Sweden). The main highway running through the area was great also. I liked it.

That would make a lot of sense and a great explanation to the gross ratio. So if 99705 actual population is far greater that 1828 the 57 offenders would be in proportion ....if the actual population is around 6000 that would be a 105-1 ratio and by the look of that map i could be buy that the population is around that number. Thanks for the in depth help/research I think we are going to have a great time in Alaska...We are so tired of Las Vegas.......
