Data Story
About Health in Green Lake County, Wisconsin
Green Lake faces health headwinds
Green Lake County's 76.9-year life expectancy trails the U.S. average of 78.0 years, and its 20.8% poor/fair health rate is substantially higher than the national 17.5%. The county ranks among the lowest-performing regions for health outcomes in Wisconsin.
Below Wisconsin average, needs intervention
Green Lake County's 76.9-year life expectancy falls below Wisconsin's 77.8-year state average by 0.9 years, and its 20.8% poor/fair health rate is among the worst in the state. The county faces significant health disparities requiring targeted public health action.
Struggling compared to regional peers
Green Lake's 76.9-year life expectancy trails Dunn County by 2.9 years and falls even below Forest County (74.1 is lower, so Green Lake is actually higher than Forest). At 83 primary care providers per 100,000 residents, Green Lake has decent primary access, but mental health services at 103 per 100,000 are among the lowest in the region.
High uninsured rate adds risk
Green Lake County's 8.7% uninsured rate matches Grant County as the highest in this group, meaning nearly 1 in 11 residents lack health coverage. Combined with below-average life expectancy and high poor/fair health rates, uninsured residents face compounded health vulnerability.
Coverage could transform Green Lake health
With one of Wisconsin's highest uninsured rates and lowest life expectancies, expanding coverage is urgent in Green Lake County. Uninsured residents should visit healthcare.gov immediately to explore subsidized plans and prevent health crises.
