The Census is Coming

This month the 2010 Census forms will be mailed. The Census has a huge impact on our community. Each person counted in our county entitles our local economy to an average of $1220 federal dollars per year, that’s over $12,000 for the census decade. This year’s census form is the shortest in history, consisting of only 10 questions, requiring only 10 minutes to complete. And the Census Bureau takes your privacy seriously. By law, individual census data cannot be shared with anyone, including law enforcement agencies.
It’s in Our Hands, Bannock County. Please remember to complete and mail back your Census form when it arrives, and encourage your family, friends and neighbors to do the same. Please make sure you are counted for the 2010 Census! Pick up more information at the library, or go to www.2010census.gov.
