But if the story is correct about it being 3X (or more) the average truck driver wages in the lower 48...


CoL is also 3-4x in Alaska because almost everything is flown in or shipped.


Off the road system and in villages sure, but in Anchorage where I've lived for over a decade...not really. Maybe 1.5, and some things like avocados are kind of a joke, but I've lived quite a few places in the lower 48 and it's just not that bad (especially since wages are also higher)
