Published 4 days, 4 hours ago
Description

Water affordability in Anchorage is holding up—currently costing just 1.5% of median income, below federal guidelines—but rising costs, remote geography, disasters, and new regulations are widening the gap.

Federal support through reauthorized funding programs and a revived low-income water assistance program could keep clean water accessible for all.
