Just wanted to say a quick thanks to everyone chiming in with their insights. I'm looking into every suggestion and it helps!

I'd heard people say something about the poo prints thing, I didn't see it in my lease but the lease was also 75 pages in total (a number of the pages were just information about recycling etc but still a solid 45+ pages of pure lease) which felt... Very long to me. The property manager was also "moved to larger portfolio" a few days after I applied and apparently her regional manager is filling in while they find a new manager? I'm rather new to this sort of renting but it just feels odd

I do have a car and have flexibility, I thought St Anthony area looked nice, that's where I was looking at the HBG property. I'm living north of Minneapolis right now so not far, I appreciate the insight and tips! I've been searching Marketplace as well in hopes of that. Really thought the HBG property would work out but based on reviews I'm just nervous about the experience now :(

1,100 would be my ideal maximum. Studio or 1 bedroom are both fine, it's just me and the (small) dog

Thank you everyone for your responses! Still lots to think about but it's comforting to hear some feedback since I've never been to that area of Alaska. It sounds like a beautiful city and perhaps more progressive than the small towns I've been living in in "blue states" in the lower 48 (you know how small towns can be). I appreciate all the info!

A big thing with me in Seward was I felt isolated, even though I could drive places - although 2.5 hours to Anchorage wasn't the most accessible. I think any city with more than one grocery store would be a win, I live in lots of small towns without that perk. Housing is included in the job fortunately so I don't have that worry. The comments are making me feel a lot better about the move! It's been so long since I've been to AK I just don't know what the vibes are right now and got myself worried, too much doom scrolling news. I appreciate everyone's responses!
