Utqiaġvik, precedentemente nota come Barrow, è un comune nel nord dell'Alaska, negli Stati Uniti, capoluogo del borough di North Slope.

Particolarità

La chiesa di Utqiaġvik.

Utqiaġvik, il cui nome precedente è un omaggio al funzionario inglese Sir John Barrow, è l'insediamento più a nord di tutti gli Stati Uniti, è una delle città con più di 2 000 abitanti più a nord del mondo. La vicina Punta Barrow (Point Barrow/Nuvuk) è il punto più a nord degli Stati Uniti d'America.

Secondo una stima, nel 2010 la popolazione cittadina ammontava a 4 212 abitanti.[1] Tra il 18 e il 19 novembre il sole scende, e rimane sotto l'orizzonte per circa 65 giorni fino a quando non riappare, in genere il 22 o il 23 gennaio. Al 1º luglio 2014 la popolazione stimata è di 4 393 abitanti.[2]

Storia

Il 1º dicembre 2016 la città ha cambiato nome da Barrow a Utqiaġvik, il suo nome tradizionale in lingua iñupiat;[3] la decisione è stata presa dopo un voto referendario effettuato nell'ottobre 2016.[3]
