Ivanka Trump to visit Hilbert (WI) on Tuesday

[Poiuyt]

For those of you who don't live in Wisconsin, Hilbert is a small community of about 1000 residents. It seems like an odd choice for her to visit.

1. Hmmm

That does seem kind of bizarre. Is it a conservative place?

6. It's a rural community, so, yes.

The big cities in Wisconsin tend to be liberal, but the rural areas can be very conservative.

7. Um ok

I seems like a weird place to go right now. Wisconsin has insane COVID numbers right now too.

2. That really is weird.

Why on Earth would she go to a tiny little farming town like that?

4. This is how Trump won WI last time

My aunt has worked the polls in a small town for years. She thought she knew everyone but people she had never met or heard of came out to vote - all from tiny towns.

5. Town profile from Wikipedia

12. A town with a 0% black population?! Must be by design. Hilbert must be full of "very fine people".

Very well-off area of Wisconsin

9. Really??????

It's farms...

The area is basically unicorporated.

The median income for a household in the village was $42,938, and the median income for a family was $51,591

I'm from the other side of Lake Winnebago. I said, "Is Hilbert near New Holstein?" Sure enough it is..So, I guess I've been there, but I don't remember it cuz I probably blinked. Maybe I had a college friend from there...

We also had Hortonville over near Green Bay and we would call Hortonville "Hooterville".

Playground for the rich.
