Each year in March we partner with the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation to survey Alaska landlords in selected areas.
How we collect the data and which units the survey includes
Every March we send surveys to thousands of potential landlords, which we identify using several sources including assessors, business licenses, past survey respondents, and other online resources.
Our March 2023 rental survey showed broad rent increases across Alaska areas. Rents went up an average of 7 percent from 2022.
In 2014, we profiled the first 100 years of Anchorage. Here, we follow up on the city's trajectory since 2015.
