The 2010 Census is Coming!

The 2010 Census is In Our Hands.

What should I do?

Fill out the questionnaire mailed by the U.S Census Bureau in March 2010.

Why is the Census important?

The Census is important because complete and accurate Census data is critical to our ability to serve the people of (city name). The data helps us identify our population and their needs and allows us to secure our share of federal funding to meet those needs.

Who does the data help?

Everyone! Over 200 agencies make their funding allocations based on Census data.  Examples where Federal funding is allocated include educational agencies; Head Start programs; Women, Infants, and Children (WIC); public transportation; road rehabilitation and construction; and emergency food and shelter.
