Home of the number one commercial fishing port in the United States, the International Port of Dutch Harbor, Unalaska's economy thrives on commercial fishing, seafood processing, fleet services, and marine transportation.

Unalaska's Department of Parks, Culture, and Recreation (PCR) enhances the community with diverse facilities and programs, including aquatics, arts, fitness, youth activities, library services, and events. The Unalaska City School District consistently ranks among the state's top schools and offers a full education spectrum from preschool to 12th grade.
