In 2005, the state demographer projected slow growth in the borough for the next twenty years.<ref>{{cite web |publisher=JuneauAlaska.com |title=Juneau's future demographic: Growing older |url=http://juneaualaska.com/history/history_demograph.shtml |access-date=November 15, 2005 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051124022628/http://juneaualaska.com/history/history_demograph.shtml |archive-date=November 24, 2005 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Cruise ship tourism has expanded rapidly, from approximately 230,000 passengers in 1990 to nearly 1,000,000 in 2006, as cruise lines have built more and larger ships. They sail to Juneau seven days a week over a longer season than before, but the cruising tourism is still primarily a summer industry. It provides few year-round jobs but stimulates summer employment in the city.

In 2010, the city was recognized as part of the "Playful City USA" initiative by [[KaBOOM! (non-profit organization)|KaBOOM!]], created to honor cities that ensure their children have great places to play.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.juneauempire.com/stories/090310/out_704260158.shtml |title=Juneau Named 'Playful' City, Only Honoree in Alaska |publisher=Juneau Empire |date=September 3, 2010 |access-date=November 15, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110811202631/http://juneauempire.com/stories/090310/out_704260158.shtml |archive-date=August 11, 2011}}</ref>

Juneau is larger in area than the state of [[Delaware]] and was for several decades, the country's largest city by area. (Sitka surpassed it in 2000 when it incorporated.) Juneau is the only U.S. state capital on an international border; it is bordered on the east by Canada. It is the U.S. state capital whose namesake was most recently alive: [[Joe Juneau (prospector)|Joe Juneau]] died in 1899.

The city was temporarily renamed UNO, after [[Uno (card game)|the card game]], on April 1, 2016 (April Fool's Day).<ref name="Uno1">{{cite web |url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/no-joke-juneau-alaska-temporarily-renamed-for-card-game-uno/?/ftag=CNM-00-10aab1d&linkId=22978428 |title=No joke: Alaska city temporarily renamed for card game UNO |date=April 1, 2016 |access-date=April 1, 2016 |publisher=Associated Press/[[CBS News]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160414200001/http://www.cbsnews.com/news/no-joke-juneau-alaska-temporarily-renamed-for-card-game-uno/?%2Fftag=CNM-00-10aab1d&linkId=22978428 |archive-date=April 14, 2016 |url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="Uno2">{{cite web |url=http://www.ktuu.com/news/news/greetings-from-uno-alaska-capital-city-teams-up-with-mattel-for-oneday-promotion/38802528 |title=Greetings from 'Uno, Alaska.'
