Is there a big demand for carpenters right now in Alaska?

Question

We are contimplating moving to the Wasilla area in the next few years, and my husband is currently a General Contractor here in the lower 48. I was just wondering if there will be enough demand construction wise (new, remodels, decking, fencing, etc) for us to make it.

Answer 1

Sadly, the Wasilla area is booming with new projects. It is growing fast. Check with the Unions. Look for online classified ads in the Anchorage Daily News or the Frontiersman newspapers. Best of luck to you.
