If you live in Seward...your looking at a 2 1/2 to 3 hour commute one way, driving the one and only road.

Default Living in Seward and working in Anchorage?

Seward is about 130 miles away from Anchorage so keep that in mind. Also, be sure you know how to drive in snow and on ice.

Can you imagine trying to commute from Seward to Anchorage in the winter on the Seward Highway!!?? I don't think so. People complain enough in the winter just about commuting from the valley. Is there anyone working in Anchorage who commutes daily from Seward??? Who is that person???
