Frequently asked questions

What is the average rent in Alaska?

In Alaska, median gross rent ranges from $378 to $2,710/month across counties, cities, and ZIP codes, based on Census ACS 5-Year estimates (2024). Browse the geographies below to find specific rent data for your area.

What does "median gross rent" mean?

Median gross rent is the midpoint of all rent payments in an area, including rent plus utilities. It gives a more complete picture of housing costs than contract rent alone, since it includes the cost of utilities like electricity, gas, and water.

Where does this rent data come from?

This data comes from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year estimates. The 5-Year estimates combine 60 months of survey data for more reliable figures, especially in smaller geographies.
