The Census Bureau is the only government agency that has data on every person in the United States. It is very important to your community, county and state that every household is accurately accounted for. People who answer the census help their communities obtain federal and state funding and valuable information. Federal dollars supporting schools, employment services, housing assistance, highway construction, hospital services, programs for the elderly and more are distributed based on census data. Your census documents will arrive at your address in late March.
Every question is required by law to manage or evaluate federal programs.
