About Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson

Through whispering trees at home in the nearby Chugach State Park, reaching to the upmost heights of the city skyscrapers, is beautiful Anchorage Alaska, home of the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. As one of the more bustling metropolitans on the northern United States, and Alaska's largest city, Anchorage has a little something for everyone.

With such a unique landscape surrounding this stunning city, it is no wonder that a large part of the economy stems from the natural resources and tourism. The government is also a large factor in Anchorage's background, being home to two large Air Force bases. The high per capita income and low taxes make this one of America's most cherished cities.

As a newer city just on the verge of celebrating its 100th birthday in 2015, Anchorage is already making a name for itself, and is a wonderful place to call home.
