Located in Southwestern Alaska, the Aleutians East Borough is
a thin stretch of land sandwiched between the Bering Sea to the north, and the
Pacific Ocean to the south. Aleutians East Borough is in southwestern
Alaska between the Bering Sea to its north and the Pacific Ocean to its south.
It includes the westernmost portion of the Alaska Peninsula and part of the
eastern Aleutian islands, encompassing 6,988.1 sq. miles of land and 8,023.5 sq.
miles of water.
The Aleutians East Borough is a municipal government spanning over 15,000
square miles of some of the most wild, remote and beautiful country on
earth. Archaeological evidence indicates the area has been
inhabited by the Unanga — called "Aleut" by Russian traders —
since the last ice age. The Borough was formed in 1987 with the seat of Aleutians East
Borough at Sand Point. In 2003, it had an estimated resident population of
2,700.
