Imagine how awkward it would be to get evicted from there

Jeez. Talk about inspiration for a Stephen King styled suspense horror.

I am from China. My wife and I toured this building this afternoon and met a nice lady and she even invited us to her condo unit. We chatted for a while and took some pictures. Her name is June and I found her in this video :) . Best wishes to people living in Whittier.

I can't believe that I finally found the place to hide from Zombie Apocalypse

This scares the shit out of me for some reason

This is the Sims on a whole new level

I was born in Whitter, and I still live there

My neighbors houses are 20 feet away or more on all sides, and they still annoy me to no end.

Damm. These people really be living in quarantine their whole life

oh i live in Whittier! The place is friendly and mostly full of extroverts, and yes, the internet service is quite fast

I can’t even imagine how Covid has affected them

I was there today. April 2, 2016. I thought this building was a hotel. I was intrigued.The surrounding site were stunning but the town is in off season, so it was all shut down and a little creepy. so came back to my hotel in Anchorage and KZfaqd it. To get there the sites where totally stunning. Then you drive thru a 2.5 mile tunnel one way only that is shared with the train also. Speed limit 25 mph. They change directions every 1/2 hr. Interesting day

So if I forgot my homework, the teacher will make me run on home to get it? Since it's connected 😅😂

i love it a whole town in a building neighbors helping each other living clean air nature everything simple the only problem food is insanely expensive in Alaska everything is expensive but i admire the folks living there nothing wrong with freedom.

Idk why but this is super creepy.. Like I don't trust it.

Out of curiosity I looked up Whittier, Alaska, then I sat here and thought about what if I moved all the way from Pensacola FL to Whittier, Alaska, then I said to myself what is the odds of me or anyone else from Pensacola moving to a town that's 10 times smaller than here, then boom the first person on the video moved from Pensacola, Florida to Whittier. 😂🤣 how ironic is that?!?!

I'm really liking this ! In a region that's mostly wilderness this is working. People can see past the small quirks that we all seem to have and are able to see people for their qualities. 💙 It's works because I lived this way, once🌷 You made my heart happy .... Thank you

An electrical fence,a few armed soldiers and you have a prison.

I can't wait I'm visiting next week!

Soooo, WHY is everybody living in one building? Kinda the crux of the whole story and completely got left out.

A person has to be "Whittier" than me to live in a place that gets so cold! 🥶 Ok, ok. I'll leave 😁

If one apartment gets roaches.... Boom! The whole city has it

This sounds like a really fascinating community. I would love to visit Alaska some day, preferably during the summer.

Drove from Florida to Alaska because “ My calling to be the pastor of this church brought me” 😂😂 yeah ok

At least its a 0% homeless rate

THIS MAKES ME REALLY HAPPY TO KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE OF COLOR LIVING THERE. :) My people laugh at me when I tell them that I want to live in Alaska for a while. I really do.

We don’t all live in one building but most everyone lives in two buildings. The rest of us live in a two-story condo building a little closer to the ocean and just passed the abandoned Buckner building

That's how cults start.

The pastor is from Pensacola. Shocker, wasn't quite weird enough for him there.

Whittier, Alaska maybe the the few safe places in the world once nuclear war or zombie apocalypse happen because it's isolation and strong community. Other are isolated island like Tristan De La Cunha.

Would love to see this place its been on my bucket list since I heard about it a few years ago!

My grandfather was born in Whittier before Begich Towers was built, and lived in the trailer park that was there. He has pictures of when his family would have to tunnel their way out of the house because the snow was so deep. And every morning the military would fire off a howitzer cannon at 7:00 directly next to his trailer. Then walk across the street to school.

I live in houston texas but several years ago i stayed in whittier alaska and i loved it it might have seemed boring at times but honestly i loved it the people were always so friendly. I stayed with my cousin santos and junior. My uncle albert caballero sent me here and it was awesome. One day ill go back. Carlos

There's other buildings there. But the weather is so intense you have to build them to with stand intense winds and terrible weather. There's a saying that says "the weather is always shittier in Whittier". Whittier actually has the longest tunnel in the country too.

This is a concept straight out of Hong Kong

Imagine quitting your job but have to see your boss across the building from you because y'all live across the building from each other 🤣

This looks and sounds like my absolute worst nightmare.

Who else is here because of tik tok?

Whittier, Alaska. Love it.

THIS IS FALSE. I lived in this town and there is a whole other apartment complex that has a lot of the town, but they don’t talk about that cause they want a story.

Wonderful place!🤗I'd like to live there forever 😎!

I used to live there and not everyone lives in the one building

2:48 "I'm about to ruin my mom's whole career!"

A really cool place to visit. BTW they have the best clam chowder in the world

Amazing community inside a single building 😍

I really don’t want to know all of my neighbors or socialize with the same people. That underground tunnel that leads to the school is long and creepy.

"In my Father's house there are many mansions"

If living there makes you happy than it's good. I wouldn't want to know all my neighbours and have them judge my lifestyle though. Also, meeting exactly the same people day after day ? No thanks. Imagine if someone really hated you and wished to hurt you but there was no escape. A horror movie plot.

This is so different but also fascinating

So your school teacher can come to see if you are doing homeworks, thats scary. You cant say you forgot the homework either. Teacher will ask you to fetch it since the school is nearby. On the bright side anything stolen will be found in that building. So either you catch the thief or the person buying stolen goods from the thief. Your doctor, plumber, police live next to you.

This should be one city with absolutely no homicides...or drunk drivers.

Whoever owns that building is loaded af

When they mentioned the neighbors that got to me, two neighbors of mine died this year and I didn’t learn for months.

Is there a hippy version of this somewhere?

I don't know why most people in the comment sections thinks that this Isolated Town is weird or worstly different from every consecutive part of the country. I think its Great and I would live in there. Not a lot people, good since I hate people. No virtually a crime to be difficultly solved. No Karen's, No Darren's, No Kyle's, No Blonde Tan Burger Eating person, and No Park Trailer society.

For some reason this reminds me of he defunct Kowloon Walled City in China.....

A perfect place for a horror movie

whay would some one move from florida to alaska ? crazy.

I really don't know why but I don't wanna live there at all

When can I move there?..Looks awesome!!!!

There are many towns with this small of a population. This one just did it in one building because it’s energy efficient and the building was there anyway.

The dude who moved from sunny Florida to a small town with one building and only 200 ppl is trying to start a CULT and he’s using religion as a smoke screen

Just so you know, most people in Alaska small towns are native Polynesian somehow. Adak especially is like 40% native hawaiian

What a coincidence, I'm going there to work in the summer, and I'm from Pensacola... I wonder if that pastor is still there

Wow Bethesda really made a RealLife Fallout Shelter!

Scary and adorable at the same time, 😁

That’s amazing

I love this idea~ Not everyone needs to be "In the World". Perfect place for introverts or just People who love solitude.

Whitter Alaska is was beautiful 30 years ago I went to the mountains up and up to see acc to the world I dreamed about living there There was a bilding for sure You have to go there ..and the You to nothing You fallow the nothing if You go out.. on our way back it strted to get so cold I went to the top, on our way bak We ended up on a riber we took our clothoff toasted on the other site dive a cross dress up an continuing running down to the bilding I remember there were only two people the We had to spring to the ship. Iwoul love to go again and see on top of the moutains the ac of the world ..

My favorite kind of place

I went there to go fishing. Pretty awesome place

Wonder what happens if the elevator breaks down!!!! 😭😂😁

Only thing that's missing in that building is a Club and a Bar lol

This is tight, i wish i lived there!

pretty cool but this also means that if one idiot falls asleep with a cigarette or forgets to turn their stove off, an entire civilization is at risk. I hope they thought this through already before building it - Talk about percarious

Imagine the solicitors. Can hit the whole town in only one day.

I'm impressed.

A crime movie can definitely be made there.

Hopefully they practice evacuations. I like having a way outside quick. We get big earthquakes up here. I had no idea everyone in Whittier lives under one roof 🤔.

This is wholesome

Amazing!

nice colt prison somebody's gonna need a hug

I'd love to visit there

Nice community, but what whey do for living, except apartment rent?

I'm from Pensacola too

I don’t know if I could get used to the tunnel closing every night & the cruise ships coming in and out. It looks beautiful though.

This is so depressing .

Honey I need to get away, I’ll be at floor above…

What a nice Horror story 😬 Vampires who can't go out the sun?

Murders here must not be often

Id love to luve there. Its so cool

Now that’s true bonding

I've been.. Very different place....lovely though

Nice story.

Coronavirus will just slay through that building (If it can even get in)

if there's a murderer in that city at least the cops will be nearby

Welcome to Whittier, Alaska where everyone knows your business before you even know it yourself.

I love Alaska

God bless u all

Lol that’s crazy y’all don’t have to go anywhere 😂💀
