How does the town deal with the pandemic? Believe it or not, there were several cases, mostly among tourists and seasonal workers, but the town has otherwise managed it quite well and they take extra measures to avoid reintroducing Covid into the now-clean city.

Is food expensive? Yes, but many do their shopping in bulk by simply traveling to nearby Anchorage. However, if there’s something that anyone forgot to buy on one of their rounds to the bigger city, they simply pop down to one of the local stores.
