What Is the 2020 Census?
The 2020 Census counts every person living in the 50 states,
District of Columbia, and five U.S. territories.
How does the Census impact you and your community?
There are many ways the 2020 Census can shape your community. The
results, collected once a decade, help determine how billions of
dollars in federal funding flow into states and communities each
year. These dollars can go toward new roads, new schools, and
recovery after a natural disaster, among many other community
needs.
The census determines how much representation each state has in
Congress. State and local officials also use census counts to
draw boundaries for congressional, state legislative, and school
districts.
Who is required to respond?
Everyone living in the 50 states, District of Columbia, and five
U.S. territories is required by law to be counted in the 2020
