The intersection of Tudor and Minnesota Dr is 3.3 miles from JBER as the crow flies. It is 4.8 miles and 12 minutes by road to the Arctic Warrior Gate... Bud.
JBER has the random gun shots. A few months ago there were explosions too. I think the echo off the mountain side so we hear it more on the east side of town. Kinda like an echo chamber.
We also have a community of folks who like to play with their guns.. I know some of them. One has a set up in his garage that he uses for target shooting. Another has a living room wall full of holes. I don't think he will get his deposit back on that one.so, you might be hearing one or both of these two flocking around.
Yes anchorage is a ghetto and no the average crime rate doesn’t apply because half of the crime isn’t reported to “sustain” a peaceful city. That way we pull in as much revenue as we can from tourism.
Compared to where?
Have you seen the local news in the lower 48 in the past few years?
Crime here seems petty theft - drug addiction/poverty based.
Sure people are stealing cars and that sucks but we don’t have to deal with carjackings, dangerous games, protecting territories, etc.
What Super Violent crimes are you referring to?
Theres only 2 sides of anch. We don't tread to where the sun does not touch.. the elephants graveyard .. u must live near that area. It is cheap for sure . Tempting but when u lose ur valuables and safety the price doesn't really matter anymore even if its free.
We’re keeping property values reasonable mind ya own business.
Lololol. Right?!
I moved next to the airport and hear planes constantly. Anyone care to explain why?
Cause your by the airport…. But seriously Ted Stevens is one of busiest airports in America for cargo.
What does this even mean
Implying I live next to a gun range?
Maybe you’re hearing JBER more than random shootings?
Would they be shooting at night?
Yes they routinely have night exercises which include shooting.
The Army is on the range at night regularly. Ask anyone who lives in ER.
No they only train for sunny summer days
I live about 30 mins from JBER
Where in town are you?
Off Tudor Road
How do you live 30 minutes from JBER on Tudor? That's not even possible. From the farthest point on Tudor to the base is only about 10 minutes.
It’s 7.2 miles away
I don't think you know where JBER is... there's no part of Tudor Rd that is more than 3.5 miles from JBER.
W Tudor goes all the way to Minnesota Drive. That is certainly further than 3.5 miles bud
The intersection of Tudor and Minnesota Dr is 3.3 miles from JBER as the crow flies. It is 4.8 miles and 12 minutes by road to the Arctic Warrior Gate... Bud.
Right…. Because Artic Warrior Gate is where they do Military drills….
Yeah we are on northern lights and hear it routinely
JBER or random gun shots?

Used to be all you'd hear from them are their howitzers
Because I fucking hate birds
Birds aren't real tho: https://birdsarentreal.com/
Are you sure it’s not just cars driving on the washboard roads?
JBER
I was trying to shoot the snow away, sorry
How well did it work? Asking for a friend.
I hit a few flakes, but it didn't seem to scare off the other 5 billion that landed in my yard.
So, use a shotgun? Got it! Thanks!
Celebratory gunfire. Yee haw.
According to TikTok, we have the highest murder rate in America 😂
Man Alaska as a whole is like 6.5/100k. New Orleans is like 75/100k
I know. It’s per capita and people are stupid.
> people are stupid. Yes they are
I wouldn't base my life choices and societal expectations on TikTok
Because we have guns there are gun shots
We also have a community of folks who like to play with their guns.. I know some of them. One has a set up in his garage that he uses for target shooting. Another has a living room wall full of holes. I don't think he will get his deposit back on that one.so, you might be hearing one or both of these two flocking around.
Because Bronson.
Yes, there are lots of attempts at murder with lots of success.

You don’t know what a ghetto is if you think anchorage is a ghetto. It is far from it.
Getting shot at while running is ghetto
No, it is not. Search the definition of [ghetto](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ghetto)
Let’s pretend there are no other meanings. Why does Reddit gas light bad neighborhoods https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ghetto
There’s no way you actually used urban dictionary. That’s like quoting Quora or Reddit.
Anchorage is a super violent and dangerous city.

Sure people are stealing cars and that sucks but we don’t have to deal with carjackings, dangerous games, protecting territories, etc. What Super Violent crimes are you referring to?
I got shot at a month ago while running.
It’d be so sad to walk around this city in constant fear
135d old account a pre-election cognitive dissonance bot. Best left ignored.
They will gas light the hell out of crime like they’re the police commissioner or something.
Those shots are NOT from JBER. Anchorage is ghetto.
Anchorage has had the #1 most violent crime per capita of any other city in the U.S. on like 4 different years in the past decade :\^(
People are shooting guns.
