Census 2020: Nine questions, 10 years of impact

Starting Thursday, March 12, households will start receiving notices by mail with a unique code to fill out the census online. Make sure to count everyone living in your household as of April 1, 2020. Your responses are confidential and will shape how much federal funding and civic representation your community gets for the next decade.

You can fill out the census online, by phone or by mail. After April, the Census Bureau will begin sending out enumerators to follow up with households that haven’t responded.
