Your Household Counts: Complete the 2020 Census Now
The U.S. Census Bureau is sending
reminder
postcards this week to an estimated 34.3 million households. This will be the final mailing before census takers begin visiting nonresponding households
across the nation in mid-August. Responding now minimizes the need for census takers to visit homes to collect responses in person.
The results of the 2020 Census will help determine how hundreds of billions of dollars in federal funding flow into communities every year for the next decade. That funding shapes many different
aspects of every community, no matter the size, no matter the location, and it’s now, more than ever, that we should all respond to the Census 2020 online, by phone or by mail. Responses are kept confidential and private. It’s the law.
**Households can continue to respond on their own until home visits conclude on October 31.
