Why be counted? The United States Census occurs every 10 years. Its purpose is to count everyone residing in the United States. There are many important reasons why you should participate in the Census:
- It's easy. The census questionnaire takes only a few minutes to answer and return by mail.
- It's confidential. Your responses are protected by law. Your information is confidential. You will never be identified individually. Census Bureau employees have taken an oath to protect confidentiality and are subject to a jail term, a fineor bothfor disclosing any information that could identify a respondent.
- Census affects funding in your community. Census data directly affects how more than $300 billion per year will be spent for neighborhood improvements, public health, education, transportation and much more. This includes services for the elderly, where to build new roads and schools, or where to locate job training centers. Census data also affects your representation in state and local government and defines legislature districts, school district assignment areas and other important areas of government.
