}}Petersburg Borough is a borough in the U.S. state of Alaska. According to Census Bureau estimates, the population was 3,196 in 2016.[2] The borough seat is Petersburg.[3] Petersburg is the most recently created county equivalent in the United States.[4]

History

When the borough incorporated in 2013, it took area from the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area and the former Petersburg Census Area. The remaining portion of Petersburg Census Area (including Kake) was added to Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area. Petersburg Census Area was created in 2008 from the remaining portion of Wrangell-Petersburg Census Area upon the incorporation of the City and Borough of Wrangell.[5]
