Point Roberts Jobs

A geopolitical oddity, Point Roberts is a small unincorporated community in Whatcom County, Washington, United States. An exclave of the United States, it sits on the southernmost tip of the Tsawwassen Peninsula, south of Delta, British Columbia, Canada. Point Roberts can only be reached from the rest of the U.S. by traveling through Canada or crossing Boundary Bay. Other exclaves of this type include the Northwest Angle, Minnesota; Elm Point, Minnesota; and on a larger scale, the state of Alaska.

Many of the area's businesses are geared toward recreational and weekend visitors from Greater Vancouver, especially those in search of cheap gasoline. The handful of area bars and nightclubs are popular with visiting Canadians , and were even more so in the days before Sunday drinking was legalized in British Columbia. The local post office rents hundreds of post office boxes to individuals and businesses from the Greater Vancouver area which find it a convenient and fast way to receive mail and parcels from the United States. As reported in National Geographic Magazine, residents enjoy a low crime rate at the cost of a high local security presence.
