Poverty line
editIs it really plausible that with a median income of zero, none of the population is below the poverty line? Richard Pinch 20:50, 11 September 2006 (UTC) <-- No it's not plausible
Population
editThe population was actually between 40 and 50 in the 90s and 2000s, as can be seen here: http://live.laborstats.alaska.gov/pop/migration/PFDMigrationPlace.xls http://live.laborstats.alaska.gov/pop/estimates/data/TotalPopulationBCA_1990to2000.xls — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.177.238.87 (talk • contribs)
- The issue there is probably to do with census methodology. The census picks one day every ten years as "census day" and tries to record where people live or stay most of the time as of that specific day. This day is usually in April. So, if there are seasonal residents who are only there is summer they wouldn't get counted. I don't know that this is what happened here but it's possible. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:23, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
