Here's what Calumet looks like on its own graph.
Bridge Michigan, 2/2/2021
Built up by European immigrants who came to work in long-closed mines, Houghton County is rich in architecture and history, but struggling like much of the Upper Peninsula. In the village of Calumet, which has about 750 residents, median household income was $21,389 in 2019, roughly one third the state average.
The county is Trumpier than in was in 2016 but not all that Trumpy.
\
Trump increased his percentage of the total vote by 2.2 points, but Biden boosted Clinton's percentage by 3.6 points.
% of population 25 and older with bachelor's degree:
- 18.7% - Houghton County
- 28.3% - Michigan
- 32.1% - U.S.
% of population 65 and older:
- 17.0% - Houghton County
- 17.7% - Michigan
- 16.5% - U.S.
% of population living in poverty:
- 20.2% - Houghton County
- 13.0% - Michigan
- 10.5% - U.S. (they're joking, of course)
Trump's America: overwhelmingly white, rural, stagnant or declining population, less education, less well off than average, gullible.
As for Covid, Houghton County is already experienced its 4th peak.
And the UP in general is Michigan's hottest spot when it comes to per capita cases.
