Soldotna: Borough Seat of the Kenai Peninsula
Soldotna serves as the seat of the Kenai Peninsula Borough and the commercial center for the central peninsula. The city has about 4,544 residents, but its service area is much larger because people from Sterling, Kasilof, Funny River, and other surrounding communities rely on Soldotna for groceries, medical care, and government offices. The Sterling Highway runs through the middle of town, lined with strip malls, fast food restaurants, and big-box stores.
The Kenai River passes directly through Soldotna, and the city's identity is tied to salmon fishing. The world-record king salmon, a 97-pound, 4-ounce fish, was caught in the Kenai River near Soldotna in 1985. During the summer dipnet fishery, hundreds of Alaskans line the riverbanks south of town to fill their personal-use limits with sockeye salmon. Central Peninsula Hospital, the main medical facility between Anchorage and Homer, is located here.
Soldotna was homesteaded in the late 1940s by World War II veterans taking advantage of federal land programs. The town incorporated in 1967. Growth has been steady but modest, driven by the borough government payroll, retail trade, and seasonal tourism. Winter quiets things down considerably.
