Klukwan CDP, AK in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Klukwan CDP is a very small community in Alaska, with 89 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #239 of 355 ranked by population — larger than 32% of them. The median age here is 44.8 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 Klukwan CDP earn a median of $24,375 a year, 69% below the national figure of $78,538 and 70% below the $81,250 median for the 73 Alaska cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 16.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Klukwan CDP is valued at $66,000, 78.2% below the national figure and 78% below the $305,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $550 a month, 60.9% below the national figure, or roughly $6,600 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 27.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 54.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
With 89 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Klukwan CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
