Abstract: Abstract Demographics and Socioeconomics. With a population of 641,724 people, Alaska was the fourth least populous state in the United States in 2005. From 2000 to 2005 the state’s population increased by 14,792 people, and is projected to increase to 820,881 by 2025. This 1.2 percent projected annual growth rate is just over the projected national average of 1.0 percent. In 2005 Alaska had a per capita personal income of $35,433. This was $938 above the national average and the fifteenth highest in the country. The state’s per capita income grew at an average annual rate of 3.5 percent from 2000 to 2005, compared to 2.9 percent nationally.
