Not at all true. Just because people move to Alaska to escape the "rat
race" in the South 48, doesn't exactly make them dysfunctional. Besides
anywhere a person lives, or travels to, you're going to run into less
than civilized people and undesirables maybe.

I'm not sure what part(s) of the state you were in? but the Southeastern
part of the state has abundant raw natural beauty and is truly "God's
Country". I was born and raised in the capital city of Alaska, and have
traveled to several places, but am always glad to get back home, as to
me there is no greater place in the world.
