Watch for Census 2020 letter in your mailbox in March.
In March, every household in our community (except those with PO Boxes) will receive an invitation letter from the United States Census Bureau inviting them to complete the census form.
Federal funds, grants and support to states, counties and communities are based on population totals and breakdowns by sex, age, race and other factors. Your community benefits the most when the census counts everyone. When you respond to the census, you help your community gets its fair share of the more than $675 billion per year in federal funds spent on schools, hospitals, roads, public works and other vital programs.
Note: The Census Bureau is using the internet to securely collect your information. Responding online helps them conserve natural resources, save taxpayer money, and process data more efficiently. If you are unable to complete your 2020 Census questionnaire online, they will send you a paper questionnaire in a few weeks to complete and mail back. The census is so important that your response is required by law, and your answers are kept completely confidential. If you do not respond, they will need to send a Census Bureau interviewer to your home to collect your answers in person.
