What is
the Census?
-
The
census
is a
count of
everyone
living
in the
United
States
every 10
years.
-
The
census
is
mandated
by the
U.S.
Constitution.
-
The next
census
is in
2010.
-
Your
participation
in the
census
is
required
by law.
-
It takes
less
than 10
minutes
to
complete.
-
Federal
law
protects
the
personal
information
you
share
during
the
census.
-
Census
data are
used to
distribute
Congressional
seats to
states,
to make
decisions
about
what
community
services
to
provide,
and to
distribute
$300
billion
in
federal
funds to
local,
state
and
tribal
governments
each
year.
