I would never have expected Alaska to be the worst for violent crime. I wonder what explains that?

Lots of small tribal villages where grudges are nourished, people get drunk and do stupid things.
My best guess.

Some of the issue is small populations make crime stats per capita skew.
New Mexico (my state) is low population and high crime, and a terrible place in certain areas, but it’s not as bad as parts of NYC for example. NYS is just so big the violence goes down per capita.
