• Lake and Peninsula Borough – partially under Naknek 2 MOA; F-22 Plus-Up Environmental Assessment 3.0 Affected Environment • Matanuska-Susitna Borough – rural portions partially under Susitna and Fox MOAs; • Southeast Fairbanks Census Area – partially under Yukon, Birch, and Buffalo MOAs; • Valdez-Cordova Census Area – not under training airspace; and • Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area – partially under Galena and Stony MOAs. Alaska Natives live on many land areas under the affected airspace. Specific communities are identified under specific airspace units in Figure 3.7-2. Federally recognized Alaska Natives under the airspace include Crooked Creek, settled by Eskimo and Ingalik people; Georgetown, a seasonal fishing village; Lime village, a Dena’ina Athabascan Indian settlement; Red Devil, a village populated by a mix of Eskimo, Athabascan, and non-native inhabitants; Sleetmute, founded by Ingalik Indians; Stony River, a mix of Indian and Eskimo people; and Koliganek (U.S. Bureau of the Census 2000a). Other federally recognized Alaska Native populations in the area include Eagle, Circle, Chalkyitsik, Dot Lake, and Healy Lake. Native lifestyle in many of these villages is based on, or supplemented by, subsistence activities. Alaska Native Corporations in the region are Cook Inlet, Calista, Doyon, and Bristol Bay. Additional baseline data on minority, low-income, and youth populations in areas under the airspace are presented in Table 3.10-1. Based on 2000 Census data, the incidence of persons and families in the rural areas with incomes below the poverty level generally exceeded Anchorage-dominated state levels (see Table 3.10-1). Poverty rates in the affected regions under the training airspace ranged from a low of 18.9 percent in Lake and Peninsula and southeast Fairbanks to a high of 23.8 percent in Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, compared to 7.3 percent of persons in Anchorage and 9.5 percent of persons in the Anchorage-dominated state totals.

Minority persons represent between 22.6 percent and 87.8 percent of the population under the training airspace. Alaska Natives are by far the largest minority group, accounting for nearly the entire minority population and comprising over two-thirds of the total population in some areas under the training airspace. By comparison, minority persons represent 32.4 percent of the state population, with Alaska Natives accounting for 15.4 percent of the state total Page 3-60
F-22 Plus-Up Environmental Assessment 3.0 Affected Environment population and 47.5 percent of the state minority population. Youths under the age of 18 comprise between 32.8 percent and 39.8 percent of the population under the airspace, compared to 30.4 percent at the state level and 29.1 percent in Anchorage. Page 3-61
