Alaska's largest city by population (9)

I believe the answer is:

anchorage

(Other definitions for anchorage that I've seen before include "Safe place for ship; Alaskan city" , "Roads" , "Where boats may be moored" , "Place for ship to rest securely, and Alaskan seaport" , "large northern city" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
