The population was 24 at the 2010 census, up from 21 in 2000.[1] It is located on the spit separating Port Clarence Bay from the Bering Strait. HistoryMissionary Sheldon Jackson's greatest success with his Teller Reindeer Station at Port Clarence, figured in the Overland Relief Expedition in 1897 to save marooned whalers near Point Barrow. During the 1898-1899 gold rush in Nome, smaller quantities of both gold and high-grade tin were mined in Port Clarence.[2] The Harriman Alaska Expedition visited Port Clarence in 1899, making a photographic record of Alaska Natives.[3] In 1900, the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey charted the coastline.[2] From 1961–2010 Port Clarence was a LORAN-C station administered by the U.S. Coast Guard.[4] The LORAN-C Program was terminated Feb. 8, 2010.[5] The U.S. Coast Guard commissioned a 1350 ft. (411.48 metre) tall Loran-C tower in 1961. It was the tallest structure in Alaska until its demolition in 2010.[6] GeographyPort Clarence is located at {{coord|65|15|58|N|166|51|10|W|type:city}} (65.265974, -166.852765).[1] According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of {{convert|36.5|sqmi|km2}}, of which, {{convert|35.5|sqmi|km2}} of it is land and {{convert|1.0|sqmi|km2}} of it (2.74%) is water.
