Seward and its vicinity have a population of about 4,000. The city of Seward has around 2,540 residents. Seward sits on Resurrection Bay on the southeast coast of the Kenai Peninsula. As a southern terminus for the Alaska Railroad and a road link to Anchorage and the Interior, Seward is a long-standing transportation hub.

Many cruise ships visit Seward each year; it is the gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park. In addition to tourism, the economy includes commercial fishing, ship services and repairs, oil and gas development, a coal export facility for Usibelli Mine, a state prison, and the University of Alaska’s Institute of Marine Sciences. In 1998, the Alaska SeaLife Center opened.

John S. French represents this member entity on the PWSRCAC Board of Directors.
