In 2023, 31.50% of adults (25+) have a bachelor's degree or higher, which is markedly below the state rate (38.80%). High school or higher is 86.30%, which is markedly below the state rate (93.90%). The uninsured rate is 7.50%, which is notably higher than the state rate (4.60%).

This points to rising hardship - a weaker consumer base, greater strain on public services, and job-market headwinds. Among residents ages 3+, the largest enrollment group is elementary (41.21%). College enrollment is 25.44%, which is on par with the state rate (24.00%), meaning the community mirrors broader higher-education participation.
