Here in Sitka, land is really expensive because most of the flat and easily buildable land has already been claimed and developed. That's contributing to the seriousness of the landslide threat. There's an interesting project going on outside of Valdez. A couple people are setting up to do their tech work up here. They call themselves Geeks in the Woods [0]; I haven't followed their work other than keeping an eye on their instagram account [1]. I've often thought of trying to host a tech gathering up here at some point in the future. It's a great location for doing good tech focused work, and then disconnecting fully to regain perspective, then going back to your tech work. It's a great place for remote work, there's just very little networking with others in tech here. As for a really specific answer to your question, Alaska is so varied that you have to ask about a specific part of the state. Any particular area you're interested in?
