| @Taradando: Eagle River is within the Municipality of Anchorage boundaries, as are Girdwood, Indian, Eklutna, Peters Creek, Birchwood, and probably a few others I am missing. Anyone living in each of these areas pays property taxes to the Municipality. Pretty sure that is the difference because all of the outlying areas around Fairbanks like Fox, Ester, Goldstream, etc... are technically goverened by the Fairbanks Northstar Borough, not the City. At least that's what I remember. |
