The worst place in the WORLD 0.5 rating By diver9999 ( Sep 16, 2017) I've had my apartment broken into daily. I was gang stalked. My phone and computer hacked. There's drunks everywhere. People drive by at all hours of the night blaring their car stereo's. People will even mess with you just walking down the sidewalk. There's homeless people ...Read More sleeping everywhere. Everyone you run into will ask you for money. If you're a white man you'll get insulted by white women who are with black men. Downtown Anchorage is getting worse as far as crime go. Anchorage is the worst place you will ever live, and I even heard from tourists that even they will not come back for a visit. If you report any break-ins to your apartment or home, or you're a victim of harassment, etc.. to the police they will not get back to you. The FBI could even care less about what all is happening to you. I had to give some kind of star rating or it wouldn't let me post these truths. Don't move there or even visit. Read Less
