What is the American Community Survey?
The American Community Survey is a survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau in every county,
American Indian and Alaska Native Area, and Hawaiian Home Land. It replaced the long form in the
decennial census and greatly simplified operations so that the focus of the decennial census is solely on
counting the population.
The American Community Survey provides current demographic, social, economic, and housing
characteristics every year. In the past, this information was only available every 10 years when the
decennial census was conducted. Estimates from the American Community Survey help communities
make informed decisions and is key to their future.
The American Community Survey does not count the population, but it does provide information that
reflects what the population looks like and how it lives. That information is vital for states and local
communities in determining how to plan for schools, roads, senior citizen centers, and other goods and
services.
The U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved this survey and gave is OMB approval
No. 0607-0810. Please use this number in any correspondence concerning this survey. Respondents
are not required to respond to any information collection unless it displays a valid approval number

Info Pane:

How do I benefit by answering the American Community Survey?

Federal agencies, states, and communities say that they do not have the up-to-date information they
need to better understand community issues, respond to needs, and allocate programs and resources.
By responding to the American Community Survey questionnaire, you are helping your community
establish community goals, identify community problems and solutions, locate facilities and programs,
and measure the performance of programs.
The American Community Survey data are used by:
·
Local governments for budgeting, evaluating programs, and planning for community
development projects;
·

Community programs, such as those for the elderly, scout programs, libraries, banks,
hospitals, and other community organizations, to provide services to the community
and to locate buildings, services, and programs; and

·

Transportation planners use journey to work information to make decisions to build
new roads or add capacity to existing roads; and to develop transit systems, such as
light rail or subways by projecting future ridership.

Does the sampled GQ and individual have to answer the questions on the American Community
Survey?
Yes, your response to this survey is required by law (Title 13, United States Code, Sections 141, 193
and 221). Title 13 as changed by Title 18, imposes a penalty for not responding. The survey is
approved by the Office of Management and Budget. We estimate that the facility level survey will take
about 15 minutes to complete and the questionnaire survey will take about 25 minutes to complete.

Info Pane:
Why did you select this facility and how did I get selected?
This GQ was selected from a sample of all GQs in your area. The GQ and individuals are randomly
selected from this list each year, so we can not substitute another GQ for this one. One of the
advantages of a random sample is that we can use it to measure the whole population without having to
actually interview every person at every GQ. But in order for it to work, we cannot substitute sampled
facilities or individuals – the sample has to be truly random. Your participation is very important if
we’re going to be able to produce accurate statistics from this survey.

with information from other individuals to produce statistical data for your community. Similar

No. The Census Bureau protects your information. The police cannot see it; no other government or
regulatory agency can see it; and no court of law can see it. No one can see or use your individual
responses to enforce any type of law.
If any Census Bureau employee were to violate these provisions, he or she would be subject to severe
criminal sanctions imposed by Congress - up to 5 years’ imprisonment and/or up to a $250,000 fine, for
any Census Bureau employee who violates those provisions (13 U.S.C., Section 214, as amended by

Info Pane:
Why does the American Community Survey ask one question about race and another question about
Hispanic origin?
Race and Hispanic origin (or ethnicity) are considered distinct concepts and, therefore, require separate
questions in censuses and surveys. Hispanics or Latinos may be of any race. The Office of
Management and Budget issues the standards governing the collection of data on race and ethnicity and
all federal agencies, including the Census Bureau, must follow these standards.
