History

Hubbard was named for Charles Hubbard, who was an Oregon settler in 1847. The railroad arrived in 1870 and a station was situated in the town. ^[5]

The city made the news when former President of the United States Donald Trump, as a write-in candidate, won a seat on the board of the Hubbard Rural Fire Protection District in 2023 via a dice-roll tiebreaker over four other write-ins. However, since he didn't live in or own property in the district, he was excluded from the board. ^[6]

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.71 square miles (1.84 km²), all of it land. ^[7]
