Why Live in Ketchikan

Ketchikan, AK, a small city on the Inside Passage in southeastern Alaska, offers a unique blend of natural beauty and vibrant community life. Accessible by boat and ferry, this isolated yet lively city is known as the "Salmon Capital of the World," with fishing and shipbuilding as key industries. The local economy is also supported by the Coast Guard, a hospital, a school system, and a bustling tourism sector driven by cruise ships. Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty of things to do, from hiking trails like the Rainbird Trail and Deer Mountain Trail to fishing for salmon and halibut. The city maintains 10 public parks and several beaches, providing ample opportunities for recreation. Ketchikan's arts scene is rich, featuring the world's largest collection of totem poles and a variety of local performances and events hosted by the Arts and Humanities Council. Housing options range from early 1900s bungalows and Craftsman houses to midcentury contemporary and ranch-style homes, with downtown offering an urban setting and northern areas being more suburban and rural. The Ketchikan Gateway Borough School District serves around 2,000 students and offers advanced courses and dual enrollment opportunities. Despite its remote location, Ketchikan is well-connected through a developed fiber optic internet system and transportation options like the Alaska Marine Highway System and Ketchikan International Airport. The city's maritime climate brings mild winters and cool summers, with significant rainfall contributing to the lush environment.
