- Alaska has 30 county-equivalents: 13 boroughs, 11 census areas, 4 city and boroughs, and 2 municipalities.
- Boundaries are drawn from U.S. Census Bureau cartographic boundary files, 2023 vintage: the state outline at 1:5,000,000 and county lines at 1:20,000,000. Public domain.
- Each map fits one Letter sheet (8.5 x 11 in) with the state up to 7 inches wide; the on-screen sheet and the PDF are the same drawing.
- On the labeled map, 17 of 30 names print inside their area; 13 are numbered and listed in a key.

How names are placed: A name is printed only where it fits inside its area at 4 to 8 point type, on one line or two, using no more than 85 percent of the widest horizontal run through the label point. Anything smaller gets a number, listed in the key in county code order. Line art is black in the PDF; the state outline is drawn on top of the county lines.
