How safe is anchorage? -

i want to attend university of alaska but i want to know is achorage like any other were theres good parts or is the whole place ran by gangs and how is life around the university

Life around the University is ok. You really have to be careful at Mountain View though, Fair View, and around Muldoon - those are where the thugs hang out and do crazy stuff. Those places are where most of the shootings happen, ugh. They give the nickname Los Anchorage to Anchorage.Be careful of Tudor traffic, heavy!I think you ll do good, just be careful.
