What to pack when moving to Ketchikan
In many cases, moving means reevaluating your belongings: what to bring with you, and what to leave behind.
When moving to Alaska — whether somewhere relatively accessible like Ketchikan or Anchorage, or somewhere more remote in the bush — we recommend you bring your belongings with you as finding new “stuff” in Alaska can be both challenging and expensive.

Read MoreLife and living in Ketchikan
Let’s cut to the chase: Ketchikan is wet. It’s in the middle of a rainforest — The Tongass National Forest, which is approximately 17 million acres — and can get as much as 160 inches of rain in a year. But that’s also why people move there: the rain makes it a lush and captivating place to live.
Note that it’s a temperate place as well: it rarely gets too cold, and it never gets too hot, making it ideal for outdoor recreation, such as hunting and fishing. In fact, with salmon, eagles, whales, bears, and so much more, the wildlife is a huge draw for people moving to Ketchikan.
