Alaska
Alaska is the largest state within the Twelfth District, which itself is the largest District within the Federal Reserve System. When Alaska was admitted to statehood on January 3, 1959, it was simultaneously included in the Twelfth District and added to the territory of the SF Fed’s Seattle branch. In including Alaska, the Seattle branch region became the largest of any branch in the System.
