Tatitlek /təˈtɪtlɪk/ (Alutiiq: Taatiilaaq; Russian: Татитлек) is a census-designated place (CDP) in Chugach Census Area, United States. As of the 2020 census, Tatitlek had a population of 90. Tatitlek is in the Chugach School District and has one school, Tatitlek Community School, serving about 15 students from preschool through high school. Tatitlek is served by the Tatitlek Airport.
Tatitlek is located at 60°52′1″N 146°40′38″W / 60.86694°N 146.67722°W (60.867083, -146.677209).
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 7.3 square miles (19 km2), all of it land.
Tatitlek is located in the Prince William Sound of Alaska and is most famously known as the nearest village to the 1989 Exxon Valdez spill that decimated the area’s fishing resources.
Tatitlek first appeared on the 1880 U.S. Census as the unincorporated village of "Tatikhlek." All 73 of its residents were listed as Inuit, despite being Chugach Alutiiq, who would have been listed as “Tinneh” in the census. In 1890, it returned as "Tatitlak." This also included an unnamed Creole (mixed Russian and Native) village on Cordova (now Orca) Bay. Of the 90 residents, 53 were Native, 36 were Creole and 1 White. In 1900, it returned as "Tatiklek." In 1910 and in every successive census, it has returned as its present spelling of Tatitlek. It was made a census-designated place (CDP) in 1980. Within its boundaries is the former mining village of Ellamar (which reported on the 1910-20 & 1940-50 censuses. 1910: 98; 1920: 106; 1940: 23; 1950: 46).
As of the census of 2000, there were 107 people, 38 households, and 28 families residing in the CDP. The population density was 14.7 inhabitants per square mile (5.7/km2). There were 57 housing units at an average density of 7.8 per square mile (3.0/km2). The racial makeup of the CDP was 14.02% White, 84.11% Native American, 0.93% Asian, and 0.93% from two or more races.
Of the 38 households, 44.7% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 47.4% were married couples living together, 21.1% had a female householder with no husband present, and 23.7% were non-families. 21.1% of all households were made up of individuals, and 2.6% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.82 and the average family size was 3.28.
