produce
One of the cons is the difficulty getting a wide variety of locally grown produce. Plus, the price of produce is a con unto itself.

Another con is that it rains a lot (for some this may not be a con I guess).

Read the Anchorage Daily News online, if you don't already. Anchorage has a problem with chronic inebriates all over the place. Lots of alcoholism.

Another con with that one is the residency requirements; one doesn't get it right away and it is a-dwindeling with all the folks moving up here. |
