Cohoe CDP, AK in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Cohoe CDP is a small town in Alaska, with 1,619 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #56 of 355 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 44.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Cohoe CDP earn a median of $59,000 a year, 24.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 27% below the $81,250 median for the 73 Alaska cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 18% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Cohoe CDP is valued at $228,600, 24.7% below the national figure and 25% below the $305,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 86.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
The Census withheld gross rent for Cohoe CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
