Alaska Refinance Mortgage

Our northernmost state has a lot to offer, including the striking Glacier Bay National Park, where you can watch the drama of nature unfold as rivers of ice shatters into the bay for one of the most spectacular displays Mother Nature has to offer. The best thing is that Alaska is an undiscovered wonderland.

With a total state population of only about 650,000 (and growing slowly), there’s plenty of space for everyone. Despite that small number, it’s important to note that the state’s population has tripled since it became a state in 1959. There’s an average of 1.1 persons per square mile in Alaska, so if you want room to roam, this is the place for you.

The state’s homeownership rate is 62.5 percent with a median home value of $144,200, and the average household income as above average at $51,571. Much of the state’s housing is newer, and built since the 1980s. Homeownership is going up in the state, due to growing opportunities, favorable interest rates and affordable housing units. Although the price is rising with increased demand, there are still plenty of affordable and attractive houses in Alaska.

Alaska has some of the most fascinating types of careers, and people come from all over the lower 48 to work there. In fact, about 18 percent of Alaska’s workforce is made up of nonresident workers who come here to earn an excellent wage, and enjoy the experience of Alaska’s many opportunities. Some of the largest employment sectors in the state are in retail and healthcare, the oil industry, and the fishing industry. Many of those industries pay top dollar for those willing to relocate, even temporarily, and economic forecasts indicate that Alaska’s burgeoning economy will generate another 43,000 jobs by 2012, an impressive number relative to the state’s small population.

Those new jobs, coupled with normal turnover, will create plenty of job opportunities for everyone at all skill and educational levels. And of course, construction of an Alaska gas pipeline scheduled to begin in 2012 will be a big part of the new opportunities.
