Enticing changes lure business and leisure visitors to Alaska’s center of commerce.
Anchorage thrives as the center of commerce for the state of Alaska. A number of improvements on the horizon and already in the works will further enhance the city as a center for business and leisure travel.
“Anchorage is a great destination for business travelers, but some of the city’s future plans could make this great destination even greater,” says Christopher M. Schutte, director, Office of Economic & Community Development, Municipality of Anchorage.
While Anchorage struggled with job loss for the last three years, 2019 is projected to see a trend reversal, with 0.2 percent job growth.
“Anchorage remains an exciting place to do business as the effects of the Alaska recession have slowed. Our average hourly earnings are now ranked 10th in the nation, and we project job growth in the visitor industry, construction employment and health care-related fields,” Schutte says. A record number of cruise ship passengers in 2019 will boost the leisure and hospitality industries.
