10.6% of adults 18–64 have no health insurance, vs 8% across Wisconsin. Checkups ↓

Hilbert is healthier than its income would predict

Against all U.S. towns, Hilbert is healthier than 58%. Against the 9,186 towns with similar household incomes ($46K–$76K), it’s healthier than 83%. Health Grade ↓

Written from the CDC, Medicare and HRSA data on this page. CDC PLACES 2025 release: modeled estimates for adults, not counts; “higher” and “lower” mean the Wisconsin figure falls outside Hilbert’s likely range; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from C− to A.

Health Grade

What’s behind Hilbert’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Hilbert is healthier than 58% of U.S. towns. Diabetes holds the grade up (fewer adults with diabetes than 74% of U.S. towns); no exercise pulls it down (better than 29%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $46K–$76K (9,186)Healthier than 83%

Health estimates follow income closely across the country: towns with higher household incomes usually score higher (a correlation of 0.77 across 21,157 graded towns). Hilbert’s median household income is $61,000; among the 9,186 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($46K–$76K), it’s healthier than 83%, more than its income alone would suggest.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Hilbert could be anywhere from C− to A. The letter shows with “≈”.

Share of adults, 40 measures, with CDC’s likely range.

On the 32 measures below that have a better and a worse direction, Hilbert is better than Wisconsin on 0 and worse on 1; on the rest, the Wisconsin figure falls inside Hilbert’s likely range, so we call them about the same. Disability and SNAP are described, not compared as better or worse.

Questions about health in Hilbert

Is Hilbert a healthy place to live?

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Hilbert is healthier than 58% of U.S. towns: ≈ B for health. These are modeled estimates of who lives there, not a measure of local care or habits alone.

What is the obesity rate in Hilbert?

CDC estimates 35.2% of adults have obesity, likely between 28.4% and 42.4%, against 37.7% across Wisconsin and 32.9% nationally.

What hospital is closest to Hilbert?

Ascension Calumet Hospital in Chilton, 8.0 miles in a straight line from Hilbert’s center point, is the nearest general hospital with an emergency room; it has no Medicare star rating.

How many people in Hilbert have no health insurance?

CDC estimates 10.6% of adults ages 18–64 have no health insurance (likely 8.4–13.1%), against 8% across Wisconsin.

How accurate are these numbers?

They’re modeled estimates: CDC applies national survey answers to each area’s age, sex, race and education mix, so they describe who lives in Hilbert more than anything measured there. At the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from C− to A.
