ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Anchorage should add about 2,000 new jobs each of the next three years.
That's according to the Anchorage Economic Development Corp., which released its jobs forecast on Wednesday.
KTUU reports (http://is.gd/dDinEp) the city saw employment growth of 2.2 percent, adding about 3,400 jobs last year.
Adding the most jobs were the professional and business service, healthcare, government and oil and gas sectors.
But transportation and the retail industries had flat years, while information technology saw a decrease of jobs in 2012.
The city has added about 3,400 jobs already this year. By this time last year, about 1,500 jobs were added
There's been a decline of about 700 jobs in the government sector this year, mostly due to cutbacks and fewer teachers working this summer.
