What happens here?
>>58110180
Same things as Alaska, but less violence and more humility.
>>58110199
What happens in Alaska?
>>58110261
I thought you knew?
>>58110270
I live in New York. That's like telling someone in Spain they should know what's going on in Zimbabwe.
>>58110334
>I live in New York
I'm terribly sorry.
>>58110359
Redneck New York, not go outside get shot New York.
But I mean, it still sucks.
>>58110393
I see, well you could always move to Alaska.
German immigrants, mining, old timers. Yukon is absolutely based imo. There's probably no jobs there bur I would gladly live off the land there in a cabin since I know how to trap, hunt and fish and stuff.
>>58110393
Upstate? Around Macedone?
>>58110405
>Move to Alaska
>Cold
>Get paid by the government just for choosing to exist in that barren hellhole
And that's all I know about Alaska.
>>58110439
You could live in one of the cities, I'm sure it's not that bad.
>>58110180
gold mining
grizzly bear avoidance
>>58110429
Nah, not at all.
>>58110456
>>58110439
From what I hear Juneau and Anchorage aren't bad. I'm still on the fence about taking a job in Anchorage and moving from PA just for the sheer experience of it all. The impression I get is that you definitely have to want to live in a place like that though, but much like anything it is what you make it.
>>58110466
s-sorry
>>58110554
Alaska is a heroin ridden shithole.
It's probably only cool if you live off the land, if you work for the USFS or if you are a Wildlife trooper.
>>58110554
strange amount of people from PA here in juneau...
>>58110589
Eh, the city I go to school in now is already a heroin-ridden near-shithole. The impression I get for Alaska is that the drug problems stay mostly to the smaller villages where there's fucking nothing to do.
>>58110598
Honestly that is kind of surprising because almost everyone I talk to either loves having four seasons or wants to go south.
>>58110598
Is Southeast Alaska best Alaska?
>>58110180
Mining and drunk Indians
>>58110648
The US government really will pay you just to live in Alaska. For some reason, PA must be a big "recruitment" center for Juneau.
>>58110725
Yeah I looked into the whole "paid to live there" thing. It's pretty unique, but from what I saw I don't think it'd be enough money for me to move there without a driving primary reason. Plus you have to have residency for a year before you even start getting the checks from what I read.
>>58110180
My grandpa lives there. They make good money, have a yearly dogsled race to Alaska, and have a yearly kayak race to Alaska. I think ~40k people live in that territory.
>>58110406
>here's probably no jobs there
$75k GDP/person and McDonalds pays $16hr to start. I'd say it's not that bad, probably mostly government jobs.

>The impression I get for Alaska is that the drug problems stay mostly to the smaller villages where there's fucking nothing to do.
that is basically every town here
>>58110684
no all of alaska sucks, anchorage is full of black people and shootings if that's your thing. fairbanks is full of meth. southeast is full of heroin and meth with a black population of 5
>>58110724
this
>>58110819
Expensive to live there tho due to the extra shipping costs so it probably evens out
>>58110830
Fuuugg. I knew Matsu valley and the area was a shihole but I expected the Panhandle to be comfy and cool.
>thread about the yukon
>now about bullying alaska
>>58110180
Diamonds and polar bears
>>58110180
Definitely the best of the Territories. Least insane cost of living and also the most developed of the three. Very similar to northern British Columbia, but actually with significantly /less/ Aboriginals.
>>58110589
>Alaska is heroin-ridden shithole
That applies to most of the US, at least the heroin part
>>58112239
The heroin capital of the western hemisphere is Vancouver
>>58110598
I'm from PA.
I visited Juneau, but don't live in Alaska.
I liked that ride that take you up the middle of the mountain.
>>58110199
I don't think Alaska is particularly violent.
>>58112450
It is for women. Rape capital of the USA.
>>58110180
Icing death
>>58112475
You can't rape property.
>>58112519
Yeah...yeah...haha......but seriously that obviously sucks ass for women.
>>58112549
Yeah, I imagine it can get lonely in those small towns. Loneliness can make people do crazy things.
>>58112564
Small towns really are hell unless you're under 20 or over 60.
>>58110393
>go outside get shot new york
i didn't realize it was 1982
>>58112597
I've heard rape is pretty much expected among the natives, too. Remember hearing a native girl say she dates white people because they don't rape her. That's pretty fucked up.
>>58112622
Yeah dude, the natives here are drunk, fat, ugly rapists. They'll rape and run back to the reservation for legal protection.
>>58110270
honestly outside of maybe anchorage and juneau i don't think anybody has any idea what's going on in alaska
i think nothing? is anybody even up there?
>>58112754
Native tribes
Whackjobs hiding from government
Lots of weed
Lots of booze
Lots of drugs
Gangs (we have niggers, I don't know why people think there's no niggers in alaska)
Military bases
Hunting
Fishing
