The median home value is $166,800, well under the state median of $236,500 and slightly below the national median of $173,750. The median property tax rate of 0.74% is above the state rate of 0.71% and equal to the national rate of 0.74%, so homeowners pay a typical national-level rate on values that are lower than elsewhere in Alaska.
The median household income is $47,187.50, well below both the state figure of $69,538 and the national figure of $65,108. The unemployment rate is 9.71%, much higher than Alaska's 4.38% and the national 2.87%.
These figures describe a county where housing is relatively affordable by Alaska standards, but where lower incomes and high unemployment limit how much residents can spend on rent or a mortgage.
For buyers, the county's $166,800 median home value is attractive compared with the rest of Alaska, and the $894 median rent is moderate. Still, with a median income of $47,187.50 and unemployment of 9.71%, affordability depends heavily on local job conditions, and renters at 28.05% of households are most exposed to those pressures.
