Dear Resident:

Your address has been randomly selected by the U.S. Census Bureau to participate in the National Census Bureau Survey. The Census Bureau conducts this important, 10-minute survey to help make the 2020 Census easier, more convenient, and less costly.

Results from the 2020 Census will be used to:

  • Allocate resources for schools, health services, and new business development

  • Prepare your community to meet transportation and emergency readiness needs

  • Help ensure the political representation of your community

Respond by June 1 at:

https://respond.census.gov/ncbs


The Census Bureau is using the Internet instead of paper forms mailed to you to securely collect this information, to conserve natural resources, save taxpayer money, and process data more efficiently. If you are unable to complete the survey online, please call 1-888-715-2301 toll-free.

The census is so important that your response is required by U.S. law, and your answers are kept completely confidential. If you don’t respond, we will need to send a Census Bureau interviewer to your home to collect your answers in person.

Thank you in advance for your prompt response.

Sincerely,



John H. Thompson

Director
