Alaska Commercial Real Estate Listings

In terms of landmass, Alaska simply dwarfs every other state. When contrasted to the size of the Continental United States, Alaska is nothing short of immense. Purchased from Russia in 1867, Alaska stands as America's last geographic frontier. It is the least densely populated state in the United States, and one of the least densely populated areas on the planet. However, there is still quality investment property in the state.

While Juneau stands as the capital of Alaska, the bulk of the commercial real estate listings can be found in Anchorage. Alaska has a population of approximately 710,000, according to the 2010 Census, and about half of that population is located in the Anchorage area.

Due to its geography and abundance of natural resources, Alaska enjoys a healthy economy. Fishing and the oil and gas industry are major players in the Alaskan economy. The Trans-Alaska Pipeline can pump millions of barrels of oil every single day, and Alaska provides the United States with a sizable percentage of its oil needs. Office space, retail space and commercial realty are plentiful as a result of Alaska's healthy economy and large supply of energy resources.
