Anchorage is the largest city in Alaska, both in population and economic significance.

Anchorage, located in south-central Alaska, is home to about 40% of the state's population, making it the largest city by a wide margin. It serves as Alaska's primary hub for transportation, commerce, and tourism. While Juneau is the state capital, Anchorage's strategic location and infrastructure make it the most populous and economically vital city in the state.
