Excerpt: A recent U.S. Census Bureau report reaffirmed some assumptions about living in Eau Claire County.
- Median wages here lag behind state and national averages at all levels, but on average our homes cost less and thus have lower mortgages.
- Nearly one of every five jobs in Eau Claire County is connected to health care.
- The presence of college students puts our median age more than three years lower than the national average.
- It's not surprising that everyone hasn't heard of lutefisk. Only 1.5 percent of Americans claim Norwegian heritage, compared with nearly 21 percent of Eau Claire County residents.
