Huslia, AK population, income and ZIP codes

Huslia city is a very small community in Alaska, with 136 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #215 of 355 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 23.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Huslia city earn a median of $59,167 a year, 24.7% 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 16.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Huslia city is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $1,021 a month, 27.4% below the national figure, or roughly $12,252 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. 65.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 23.4 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 136 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Huslia city against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value for Huslia city 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.
