Annual average temperature is just 41.6°F per NOAA's 1991–2020 Climate Normals — a notably cold-weather climate. Alaska has no state income tax (Tax Foundation 2025).

Notable: median household income $94,688, fair market rent of $2,000 for a two-bedroom, and 69.6% foreign-born residents per Census ACS. Every figure on this page links to its underlying federal dataset with a retrieval date so you can audit the freshness yourself.

What these numbers say together
Unalaska, AK (ZIP 99692) sits in Aleutians West Census Area. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Depression comes in below the national average at 12.0%.

The two domains pull in different directions. Healthcare access reads strong, but the on-paper school count is on the lighter side — that’s less a quality signal and more a density one. Households here often look at districts a few ZIPs over for school choice while keeping their providers local.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits lower the national rate at 12.0%. Each figure on this page links to the original federal dataset with its retrieval date — this synthesis is a reading, not a substitute for the underlying records.
