What stands out about health in Hubbard

Hubbard is an older town

31% of residents are 65 or older, vs 19% across Wisconsin. Conditions like heart disease and arthritis become more common with age, so keep that in mind when comparing Hubbard with the state. Conditions ↓

Hubbard trails towns with similar incomes

Hubbard is healthier than 45% of U.S. towns, and only 28% of the 9,831 towns with similar household incomes ($68K–$114K), so income alone doesn’t explain its grade. 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 Hubbard’s likely range; Hubbard’s figures come from ZIP codes 53035, 53032, 53050, 53039, which may reach past town lines; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from C− to B+.

Health Grade

What’s behind Hubbard’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Hubbard is healthier than 45% of U.S. towns. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 65% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 7%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $68K–$114K (9,831)Healthier than 28%

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). Hubbard’s median household income is $91,215; among the 9,831 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($68K–$114K), it’s healthier than 28%, less than its income alone would suggest.

A fairly firm grade. With every estimate at the unfavorable or the favorable end of CDC’s likely range, Hubbard could be anywhere from C− to B+. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 53035,53032,53050,53039), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
