Alaskan woman reveals high prices for groceries in her remote town…

Emily (known as emilyinalaska_ on TikTok), whose videos are all about her life in south-central Alaska, made a video about the astronomical grocery store prices in her rural town.

Using text-to-voice feature, she explained that ‘goods are priced higher since they have to travel farther by plane or barge to get to rural areas… The cost of living in Alaska is 24 percent higher than the national average.’
