% of Population without Health Insurance, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Alaska

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Zip codes in Alaska's interior and western rural regions—particularly areas around the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta and parts of the Interior—display some of the highest uninsured rates, with several zones exceeding 25–35%, likely reflecting limited access to employer-sponsored coverage in remote Native communities. In contrast, the Anchorage metropolitan area and parts of the Kenai Peninsula and Juneau/Southeast Alaska panhandle contain clusters of zip codes with notably lower uninsured rates, generally below 10%, consistent with greater urban employment and healthcare infrastructure. The stark rural-urban divide is reinforced by scattered high-uninsured outliers in the Aleutian chain and North Slope, while gray (no-data) zones across vast unpopulated interior regions highlight the sparseness of Alaska's population distribution.
