Happy Census Day!
No joke--it's the official Census Day!
What does that mean? Where you live or stay most of the time as of today is what your Census documentation should show.
5 Ws and a H: Census FAQ
- WHAT? Every 10 years the US Census counts each person in the US. NC loses $16,000 for each person not counted.
- WHY? Census data is used by the state, county, and city to plan for and fund everything from Head Start to high schools and healthcare to highways.
- WHO: One person should count every member of their household and submit the information. ALL people living in the US, regardless of citizenship status or age, should be counted!
- HOW? You can respond online, by phone, or by mail. If you do not respond, local census staff will go door-to-door to make sure your household is counted.
- WHERE? Visit 2020census.gov or call 1-844-330-2020.
A quick note to and for COLLEGE STUDENTS: Are you home temporarily because of dorm closure? Chances are your school will be counting you (check with your university). If you live off-campus, you will need to take the census as a part of your household!
Your household has likely already received the information about how to fill out the Census twice-- an official notice and a reminder notice.
