Educational Attainment While higher levels of educational attainment among residents in Hugo continues to increase, the data shows that after 20 years of decline of residents with less than a high school degree, there was a slight increase in the percent of people in the City that had less than a high school degree. Hugo continues to see increases in the number of residents who have an associates or a graduate / professional degree. The City will continue to monitor educational attainment to see if the changing numbers indicate long-term trends that have the potential to impact services. Figure 2-3 HUG 2040 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE Household Size and Type Household in Hugo declined dramatically from an average of 3.12 people per household in 1990 to an average of 2.65 in 2010, and is holding relatively steady from 2010-2015. The reduction in the average number of people living in a household is similar to county -wide household size trends, which brings it closer to the regional household size overall. As shown in Figure xx, the data suggests that the number of people living alone continues to increase as well as unmarried families with children. These trends indicate that housing needs may be different for residents that live alone, families with children and families without children.
