American Indians and Alaska Natives have been historically undercounted for decades, in part due to the fact that roughly than one in four American Indians and Alaska Natives live in hard-to-count census tracts. Factors such as poverty, educational attainment, and housing insecurity can compound American Indians and Alaska Natives’ risk of being undercounted. Being undercounted potentially disadvantages American Indian and Alaska Native families, communities, and neighborhoods.
